i feel something in me
like a dark force clawing and biting
it wants to get out
when i walk
or talk
or eat
it needs to eat
so it devours my feelings
it mashes them
molds them into a new me
one that i dont like
that others dont like
because it isnt me
i seem a bit more dark inside
like a demon had tortured me
but no
it still tortured me
when i walked
or talked
or ate
i think i can handle this on my own
but they keep asking to help
“i dont need them” i think
but the darkness within thinks that
“you should be fine” it tells me
taking my brain and playing with it
like its some instrument
eventually it controls my body
making me seem a bit off
but i am far off
they just dont know
how it feels to be molded and shaped
by the darkness i have
within.

okay, I got chills. I love this (it feels so weird to say i love it, because really the feelings suck) but it's so amazingly written and I can relate so much.
the only thing I see that I would change is the third line
''I wants to get out'' I know it was probably a typo (the S at the end of want shouldn't be there) but I honestly don't see anything else wrong with it so I thought I'd mention it. XD
I've written poetry with a similar subject matter and boy, you did it so much better. I look forward to reading more from you.
stay alive fam.
thanks for pointing that out m8
Awesome, I think I can relate to this, the violent, greedy, selfish side of myself, which makes me forget reason, throw mercy down the drain. I understand what your talking about. If this is based on reality, I just want to say, it gets better. You are in control, and the choices you make dont only effect you, but others around you, and you can not only help yourself unchain the bonds of darkness, but others around you as well. Anyways, awesome poem, and I cant wait to read more. :3
thanks!
i was trying to go for more of a depressed, irrational side of me rather than a greedy side but now that you mention it i kinda see where you got that from!
Haha, actually I was referring more to my experiences to my demonic side. XD
