Not So Beautiful (Not Alive)

Folder: 
Poetry

This heart does not beat

And this blood does not flow.

These eyes do not see

And these lips are cold and dead.

(Eye am not alive)

The nerves are severed

And the skin is all in tatters.

These fingers cannot feel

And the broken soul is shattered.

(Eye am not alive)

Someone get me out of this.

This isn't supposed to be me.

This body is my torment.

Please set me free from this anarchy.

(Eye am not alive)

Shivering in the dark,

Wonder why I'm still here.

Can't seem to set this straight.

I can't believe that she is me.

(Eye am not alive)

Cracked mirrors and broken hearts,

Seventeen years spilled on the floor.

Baby has ceased to suffer enough.

She's not so beautiful anymore.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this after seeing a Lacuna Coil video that completely summarized everything that is wrong with me. I broke down during it and this poem is the result. I'm pathetic, I know.
