~Blotchy Skin and Tear Stained Faces~

I'm tired.
Tired of being last.
Tired of watching.
Tired of the past.

I'm afraid of
Everything.
Afraid of falling.
Afraid to stand still.

There's no place
To run to.
I'm trapped
In a dark corner.

My life can't
Move on.
My heart can't
Keep beating.

Blotchy skin and
Tear stained faces
Are always
Present.

I tell them
"I'm okay."
When I just want
To fade away.

I'm a shadow
Attached to a body.
Forced to keep going.
Not really anybody.

I'm a mess
I'm just
Blotchy skin and
Tear stained faces
