Shut Up (Free verse) by openwounds

I removed my tongue last night . Never felt pain, couldn't wait I cut it slowly, taking care . Silence is the only sound I hear My words were killing me . didn't need it really A clean blade soon bathed in blood . falling on the white carpet they just laughed . I saved it . in a jar It's ugly just like the words were . Now I'm pretty

oh dear. it really does seem that no one understands the poem. listen sweetness, i'm not a tormented child, nor am i on the brink of insanity. i simply like my poetry a bit more .. daring. i don't particularly care for slipknot or marilyn manson, sorry for not following your little sterotypes. the line 'they just laughed' wasn't referring to "jocks" or "pretty girls". it referred to my friends - they would see such an act as something funny - as would i. so please before you make an attempt to analyze me and my poetry - get a grip - not all 'weird' poetry is written by a manic depressive 'freak'.
