Myself

100 9 9
                                    

My thoughts are full of things they said

Sometimes I think I'd rather be dead

My eyes are full of terrible lies

My soul has already metaphorically died

My thin hands create art,

down across my wrists and on my heart

But what has been broken

cannot be shattered.

I hate when they ask, "What is the matter?"

Do you not know what you've done to me?

My mind is like a deadly disease.

My heart is covered in long thick lines,

Some are yours and some are mine.

Sometimes I bleed and sometimes I cry.

When are you going to realize your words, your actions all have an effect.

Just wait until I am gone, I am dead.

The demons inside me are trying to breathe.

Please come help, come rescue me.

The monster inside me is the only one who cares,

The only one who has always been there.

As the darkness takes over me,

My thoughts soon leave.

Once again I am left alone,

The voices in my head have found their way home.

The war within me rages on,

To no surprise the dark one comes out strong.

My sanity no longer burdens me,

Though my weaker self has deserted me.

I am and forever will be alone.

You try and see, but I hide it too well,

It is and forever will be my own private Hell...
