A Poem About Myself

Says it all in the title...

Many claim that I'm grand and great

But they do not know the price on them I would take

My emotions are practically fake

I'm a cheater

And a bleeder

I would take the easiest way out if possible

I cut myself for s***s and giggles

Give me a rope and I'd hang a little

I am lazy 

Pathetic

A down-right loser

I would rather cheat than do my best 

And get true praise for doing so

I can't stay in a relationship

Or club

Or group

Or anything

For I get bored

And I fear commitment

 My heart lies in the hands of no god

For I am an atheist

And I shout the knowledge that I got

I find women attractive 

(I also enjoy men)

But never would I date one

For I know what we are like

Bitchy and painful

I am the definition of apathy

Burn me with words and I will not care

But burn my friends

And I will cook you into a stew

I am dark

I am creepy

I am my Weeper

I feed off my enemies pain

And I feel pleasure when I suffer

Reviews

[Ted Kniffen]

I'll review this for s***s and giggles. Very dark and emotional. I like it. Whether you or not, the protagonist of your poem would seem to be filled with self-loathing and a strange pride. Not many people would understand this much about themselves, let alone shout it out. Some of it reads tongue in cheek, but overall there is a feeling of realness that makes the reader wonder, and that's the point. A good write

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Thank you kindly. This is how I (used to) view myself. I do have a small amount of pride in myself, and it has grown somewhat. I'm pleased that you liked it.

--You're still writing though and you do it very well.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Thank you..

[Pete]

Wow. Very honest and dark. Strong and powerful. Do you really feel this way or are you playing?

[Alexandra Hounschell]

I really do feel this way.. I tend to sound more sarcastic when I'm playing with words

[Inject Positivity]

Full of honesty.....I admire your courage here to speak up so truly.....Loved the simplicity of the poem and the unique thought.....Full ratings.....

[Inject Positivity]

I think this poem silently shows how good you are at heart....Not too many have that courage....

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ahhhh thank you ~

[Inject Positivity]

I honestly said that mate.....Its my pleasure....

[Leon C]

Can't say I didn't laugh at this, because I did.

I hope for your sake that this is written with your tongue firmly in your cheek. :-)

Very entertaining. Well done

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Very pleased that you laughed~ Thank you

[Leon C]

I assume therefore it isn't entirely true :-)

[:o]

I won't invite you to lunch, how's that?

I gave you 100for honesty. lol

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Aw but I enjoy going out for a nice meal. Oh well~

[:o]

lol I'll take you but you have to promise you won't get bored.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ahh I won't get bored. Cross my heart

[:o]

Okay, I'll see you there. Ware something sexy. That is, if you want to.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

I gladly will if you count leggings and some sort of geeky shirt as sexy

[:o]

On you? Yeah, I'm sure that would make my insides quiver with delight.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Lovely. Then I shall wear my most comfortable leggings and my most geeky shirt~

[:o]

Will you look like the girl from the big bang theory? Her glasses make me shiver with excitement.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Possibly. I won't be that cute or attractive, but hopefully I shall look good enough for you

[:o]

I'm sure you will. Can we walk close together and brush hands?

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Only brush hands?

[:o]

We could hold hands if you want. My heart my race and I might fall down but if you don't mind?

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Of course. I would catch you, but I don't see why you would fall

[:o]

Nerves. My legs get weak around a pretty girl who wears leggings and a geeky shirt.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ahh but I'm not so pretty..

[:o]

Do you have bossoms that are ample? lol

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ah yes I do~

[:o]

Hold on, I have to get up.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Oh alright

[:o]

Okay, I'm better now. Do you have sweet tender lips I could kiss?

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ahhh perhaps

[:o]

Hold on...I have to get up again.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

My curiosity is getting the best of me.. "Get up"?

[:o]

I know what you're thinking.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Do you? I am curious because I have no thought on what you could mean

[:o]

aha, yes you do. lol

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ahh~ I might do actually.. Haha

[:o]

You might do? That's a fruedian slip you know. lol What is it you want to do Alexandra? Hmm

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ah pardon my slip good sir. I'm not sure what I'd like to do.. Do you have anything in mind?

[:o]

Ohhhh, yeah, I do. Hold on, I have to get up again. (FROM THE GROUND) and I mean my body not something else.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Haha~ What do you have in mind?

[:o]

Oh perhaps a drink and some conversation. I could massage your arm over your geeky shirt.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

That would be absolutely lovely~

[:o]

Yeah, then I could massage your leg over your leggings.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Oh? Why would you do that?

[:o]

Why would I, Ummm well I wouldn't actually. We could walk on the beach, provided I don't fall down from being with such a pretty girl with ample bossoms.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Aw you are a sweetheart. I'll catch you and let you rest against me until you feel able enough to walk

[:o]

Geez, I'd ....Umm Yeah, that would be so swell.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Oh really? Why would it be swell?

[:o]

Resting against you of course.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ah, you sweetheart~

[:o]

Hey I have a question for you?

[Alexandra Hounschell]

You may ask

[:o]

Is it us making all those views you just got?

[Alexandra Hounschell]

I have no clue

[:o]

Dood, that's a lot more than when we started you know.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

I haven't been paying attention. Views aren't that important to me

[:o]

As you can see I have no witing so I feel the same. It is a lot more though.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

It is a lot more. Shall we use the specially designed messaging system on here so we don't add on more false views?

[:o]

Up to you my pretty friend.

[MAC]

so, other then all that...you're perfect. :) i have this thing for raw, in a mirror poetry. seems more honest then most forms. sad piece but yet it shows much strength. nice write!

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Thank you very much, but I'm nowhere near perfection.. I'm very glad that you liked it

[Dandelion]

It's a shame people don't see through the smiles and laughter. Then people like you, or me, or anyone else wouldn't have to live a lie and did you know we're at greater risk for suicide. If people cared enough to see through us but the world is too self absorbed. It's sweet you protect those you love. Nice poem, even though it's depressing.

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Thank you.. It is very much a shame. I just wrote this to tell the people who constantly read my nonsense about myself.. Thank you again..

[Crimson Apples]

*applause*
I dunno you.
But it was cool reading about you. *iz a pun*
XDXDXD
This was written with skill. You should definitely join ze shitz and giggles club if you feel thiz wayzzzzzzzzz.
Awesome job expressing yourself, not that I think your bad. I don't know you anyway, but this poem seemed full of dark humour. *pats back*
Congratz! This deserves a 100

[Alexandra Hounschell]

Ah haha thank you! I do enjoy dark humor and whatnot. Thanks!!

[Crimson Apples]

yeah, no problem!
