It's us
destroying ourselves.
Our arms bearing the scars of the hate that inside us dwells.
It's us
addictions, drugs, narcotics, marijana,
Trying to take us to anotherlife-far away
It's us
brokeness,depression,scars,self-destruction,
Anger, hatred, hurt, mutilation
It's us
This generation now, teenagers
We are bound to each other, to strangers
It's us
But it's not me

This poem has a sort of 'haunted' feel to it that really helps get the message across. I don't really know how to describe this poem, other then WOW!
I will definitely favorite this.
