My curse is me, <br />I must agree, <br />I feel this truth inside. <br />Masked by laughter, <br />smiles and friends, <br />but they see only lies. <br />Some may know but they don't say, <br />as if I'd even care. <br />All time is empty and unfulfilled, <br />even time thats shared. <br />I've spent my life it seems in pain, <br />thats numbed me cause my past. <br />From child to man I've hoped and prayed, <br />each day would be the last. <br />With all breath gone and dark so strong, <br />I cant be seen to hurt. <br />To share my pain with someone else, <br />is the only thing that works. <br />So read these words and hold your breath, <br />that you wont be the next. <br />Who's crying tears because he fears, <br />the life he lives is hexed.<br /><br />saint cynosure ( Ken Bennight )<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cursed-life/
