Cracked.*

My surface seems intact,
But you're looking at a lie.
Inside I'm deeply cracked,
And I truly want to die.

I stare at myself
And despise what I see.
I'd sacrifice my health,
Just to look pretty.

I can't feel anything.
I've gone completely numb.
My ears continue to ring,
I can't remember where I'm from.

My vision is failing,
The tears clouding my sight.
My hands are shaking,
As I fade into the night.
