Description
HiddenA fortress of pain
Of ever raging fire
Clouds of icy rain
Unstoppable desire
Thrashing up inside
It Tears me apart
And nowhere to hide
Prison of the heart
It bleeds out lines
Words onto the page
Belaying the signs
Tinted with my rage
Letters of despair
Pour from the mind
Out into the air
I lock them away
Barricade the door
There they'll stay
Trapped evermore
Banished them all
To this new place
Where I can fall
And shield my face
All hidden forever
Beyond your eyes
So I don't sever
The weakening ties
My eternal vault
Of mourned dreams
It's my entire fault
My silent screams
Burying my emotion
So it can't be found
An act of devotion
To block the sound
The voice in my head
Haunts my cold sleep
Nights in my bed
I lie alone and weep
This is my secret
All here, online
Kingdom of regret
My virtual shrine
Words on a screen
All that I conceal
What can't be seen
What I can't reveal

Thanks, Ah goodness knows how to fix them - just going to remain permanently broken, no amount of time can seal this mess up. being plagued by the same thing that cursed the very beginning of the year and I'm sure set off January's troubles. If I haven't quelled it by now than there is now hope for a resolution. But I really appreciate the support hell knows I've needed it over the months and there is no change on the horizon.

Hooray. Woo hoo. I'm first :3
May I know what influences or produces said madness?
Very well written as usual. Well done, my dear

You certainly are first, and you are making quite the habit out of it
So many things, I fear that if the thoughts laced into these writings, the words I've carved into this corner of the internet, were ever to get out into the open. People would not be too pleased, some would be hurt, others angry and disappointed. Several people would be upset none more than the focus of almost all I purvey.
And thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it a very welcome follower of my work and you are much appreciated.

Well, it is a good habi at least. If I'm not my best, then I am not myself :3
The internet is forever. As long as you are honest, but keep things that would only be rude in mind, you are good to go, I believe
You are always welcome

The internet maybe forever but the scars that the words would cause if released would truly be eternal. I fear honesty is not the best of plans - I posted my first poems (the first five or six on here) elsewhere in the sight of someone and things didn't work out really well at all, this is for the best - until people change.

very well. You may do what you believe is best. I'm not one to argue much. That's my sister

Don't get me wrong, I can truly see the sense in your words - and in more situations they would be the perfect solution. I really do wish I could share these things with those they are written for but that fear holds them back.
And that's what sisters are for - to be argumentative

You don't have to explain yourself. I understand keeping things inside than hurting others. Unless they are asking to be hurt then I give them what they want.
At this age, that is her perfect design. I would revise her blueprints if I could but I can't go back and fix her idiot father. Heavy sigh. And it is his weekend. Yay :-l

That's alright, I just feared I came across as stubborn or something.
I can understand that, having similarly annoying siblings born from a moronic father, does also explain how I turned out. Genetic re-engineering may be out of the question however . You need not sigh because the people of the internet, I included are here for support of things...

You needn't fear for you didn't. I love the word needn't. Makes me seem very intellectual :3
Darn. Oh, well. Someday, scientists. I appreciate the lovely support. Well at least you are. Some people aren't the nicest of sorts. I'm not fond of those who curse frequently. Bad people outweigh good in the world, I'm sad to say. C'est la vie.

I am strengthening my vocabulary as we type. Attempting to at the least
Why have they been rioting? I have wondered that for a couple days but haven't gotten around to research the matter. You are there though so I'm glad I can just ask you
Aww thank you. That makes me feel really special. I'm glad you think so. I have worked hard to obtain a nice personality and presence so others aren't quick to judge me. Yay!!! I'm worth Mother earth's time :3

It's it but one word in an endless repertoire you shall possess within you mind to unleash a powerful intellectuality.
Someday indeed, with the wonders of science who knows. And I agree too many people are not the nicest of folk, conducting all manner of things heck our country has just spent the past few days rioting and being not very nice. But there are good people like you who are nice and worth having on the planet
