THIS IS ME

Darkest Art

Twisted in my body, broken in my mind
Scarred for life, barely emotional
Swallowed in my own pain
Broken, my demons sure mine to keep
Quite a company they make.

The darkness hovers around me
Never ceasing to point me out a painful plight,
Years on the lonely runway I've walked
Lied to myself all year long
Told myself they did not know what I was worth

I said I was different.
True to it, I was, just a bad different
No light as I'm shut here in the dark
Never felt so close to death

All the pains I have kept hidden for years
All the sorrows I tried to hide
All the truths I protected "me" from
All the truths I pushed back as a lie
Comes back hunting me

All there looking me face to face
As if to say I told you so
You we're never wanted
Pretending to be okay, laughing to hide the tears.
This is the life of pretense I live, This is who I am
The miserable me,
This is me...
