Nice.... Deep too

Guess no one likes my poetry I wanted some feed back

Treasure out of darkness My pain never leaves. It's dormant in silence, If I'm not careful will it turn to violence? I'm ready to run, back to it all but I know that it's empty, avoiding your call. I've answered your call, but I still feel so blank Is my boat still floating? Or has it already sank? I'm ready to dive off the spiritual plank Back to your arms before it's too late Overtaken by anguish Succumbed by grief we are all sinners, but I am the chief I'm reaching for light, but hiding in fear I'm a treasure out of Darkness wiping my tears.

Written in Def Poetry Style... Hey yo, I thought I forgave, I thought I was free These things from my past just won't seem to leave I cry out to God, I'm beggin him please These things from my youth just won't seem to leave Why didn't I just do it Suicide my option, but I couldn't go through with it. And I'm still cryin out hoping one day I change Hoping one day God rids me of this heart ache and pain Molested twelve years.... Equals a life of fear and a whole lot of tears. But I'm not crying now least not in defeat gave my life to Jesus Now I bow at his feet But it ain't finished yet I strayed off the path the devil had set He had a plan for me it ended six feet below But it started in a good or a "Functional home" Mom and dad were working while my brother raised us kids No one ever thought to think of what the problem is... I'm cryin when you leave, I'm cryin when you come home Still no one seemed to listen in our so called "Perfect home" Until police came to our door and opened up your eyes Now for once we finally see behind the dark desguise A life of lies to hide behind, A life of secret sins A man a child in our home, when did this begin? Did you know the pain you'd cause, brotha did you think? Did you know how mom would cry how often dad would drink? Did you know you'd leave that child lost hurt and confused? And everything we've ever known in one day we'd lose Did you know the drugs I'd use just to numb my pain? And how many times I'd come so close to a bullet in my brain? Did you know the choice you made would bring me to know Christ? And what the Devil meant for wrong would give eternal life? That's life it's just not perfect Some times I wonder if it'll ever be worth it?

The picture is amazing aswell

Good poem and I understand where you are coming from... As most people in our day and age have contiplated suicide. The main thing I can tell you is you can't stop a bird from flying over your head, but you can keep it from making a nest. Thoughts happen and I understand what it's like to love the negative feelings because they feel true and make you feel ugly and thats all you know how to understand. Whatever it is that has you feeling this way is simply a lie a coping mechanism that needs to be extinguished.
