Malcontent
I stare at foreign words.
My handwriting -- I did not write them.
Not conciously was I there.
I absorb the hatred spewed in ink,
Wavering, strength refusing me.
Cyanide lines I don't remember.
I hold my tongue to others.
I turn the pen on myself.

Thank you! (: As you can tell, it isn't in my usual "style" (longer, with stanzas of sorts -- you know what I mean XD).
It's meant to have more impact, and I'm very glad it does -- inspiring thoughts is the greatest praise I can get XD
Again, as with all of your comments, I greatly appreciate it
Wow, thank you very much (: I truly appreciate it.
And I absolutely will check out your stuff :DD
Wow. This is one of the few things that I find that actually really hits home for me. You did an amazing job in so few lines. I really loved reading that.
Please take a look at some of my work if you have a spare minute. I'd really like to get some constructive criticism from someone like you.
