Love, Lies, & Life Support

Who I am.

My body shakes with fear.

No window I see is clear.

My mind is so confused.

I know I'm being reused.

"Why do our bodies have to age?"

"We'll just end up stuck in a cage."

But I don't enjoy my youth now.

And I don't think I'll know how.

Broken promises left and right.

And with all of my might,

I try keeping my cool.

But instead, I become a fool.

When you are by my side.

Your eyes and smile are wide.

Burning with warmth and passion.

But then it became out of fashion.

What's in now is a frozen heart.

Everyone loves this type of art.

And I was an idiot to hold it tight.

I promise, it will give you frostbite.

I have more scars than I can count.

But then you'll regard the amount.

Who am I to you? I need to know.

This question is what stops my flow.

I don't trust anyone in my life.

People have cut me with their knives.

Used me as a canvas and was painted.

Till my body and soul was tainted.

It's my purpose to become kind.

And I honestly don't mind.

But I'm asking for one favor.

Can someone become my saver?

Just tell me everything will be okay.

That it's good to be positive everyday.

I want someone that I can trust.

Someone who won't be unjust.

I'm sorry, I guess I am needy.

I didn't want to come out greedy.

I'll deal with my demons alone.

And I'll change my tone.

To a happier yet worrisome girl.

Which is also a real pearl.

She's not fake, unlike other jewelry.

Just doesn't want to open up to cruelty.

But I'm exhausted and tired.

And lost all of my desired.

You don't care, so put me to rest.

I think I'm done with this quest.
