My Emotional CemeteryA Poem by Elizabeth FiskeA poem that expresses the pain and depression I've suffered with...What are you doing? Everyone believed in you. You don't even know what you do When you sit down and cry And ask yourself "Why?" When you know the answer. You just dig yourself deeper. Pain is food And your an emotional eater. Yeah, life is rough And having faith is tough, But that doesn't mean You can give up. Your pathetic, I'm trying to get you to admit it. You need a little tough love In order to get it into that thick head, That you've feed Underseved self righteousness. It's time to confess Your own logic's flaws. I don't understand Why you built your coffin With your own hands. That isn't your job, So something must've gone wrong... But who would know? You bottle it up And ride along with the flow Of time. It's a crime That I have to tell you these rhymes In the first place. Suck it up; Past are the memories That build your emotional cemetery. So it's time to open your eyes And smash your tombstone. When you do, You'll find that happiness does grow And will kill life's poison ivy That wraps around your feet And drags you down, Until you and Death meet.
