My pit and core (written 30.12.03)
right inside my pit and core
are all my hurts and fears
all stored up inside myself
for many, many years
no one sees me inside
a hurting fearing mess
poems and explaining
only help them guess
what no one sees inside me
is I'm drowning in a pit
of tears, hurts and fears
caused mostly by one git
inside I hear voices
echo round my head
have to relive memories
which I hoped were dead
the nightmares fill my dreamland
disturb my little sleep
feelings from the my awful past
into my present seep
The feeling of guilt comes again
to attack from within
attacks my heart and headstrings
throws coping in the bin
mandy shanks (16)
