My Life

~Lifeless

I continue to fall into this dark void,

So lost, so confused,

The blackness consuming me in its grasp.

I tried to scream, yet I couldn't hear the shrilling cry for help,

My vocal cords too tight to ring against each otherㅡmy voice turned out as a rasp.

Struggling to breathe,

Lungs without air, choking for my last breathㅡI could only gasp.

Vision blurred,

Hot, salty tears rolling down my face, falling on the cold ground,

Feeling nothing but sadness.

They say what's wrong, they say they understand. But do they really understand the feeling of emptiness?

Voices echoing around the darkness, reminding me how harsh people can beㅡto them, I'm worthless.

I slip even deeper into this dark void,

I do not yell, cry, or even breathe,

I let it consume me with open arms, until I'm lifeless.
