Careful

Burning bleeding and alone 
These words will be written on my stone
I'm not like all of the rest
But I guess that's your theory to test
I may seem calm and happy on the outside 
But if you look within you'll probably run and hide
I'm friends with the voices inside my head 
They are my friends who sometimes want me dead 
They are different I guess you could say 
But they are all that I have got and I want them to stay
You may think I'm a freak and I might be
Have caution when looking too deep cuz there's things you can't unsee

Good advice, Sidny, Welcome to Poetry Soup. It will be a delight to read and become familiar with your poems in the future. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile others passed when I first joined the soup. Wishing you and your poetry the best.

Sydni, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
