Cracked Out

i crack smiles
                                         and lie to use it
                       i run for miles
                                          just to refuse it
                       i chase my mind
                                           each time I choose it
                       i bite my tongue
                                            so not to chew it
                       i hold my breath
                                            so they'll excuse it
                       i hide my skin
                                            again
                                            I've bruised it
                       i admit 
                                  within 
                                            it's been confusing

Andrea Dietrich September 8, 2011 at 1:10 AM Cracked out, awesome!!! Yes, it's a good trait to admit when it's confusing. I do it all the time! thanks for your comments on my "words I never said" poem. Glad you didnt' think it needed to be changed. I thought that too. LUv, Andrea
