PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Darkness intertwined beneath the sheets

Bloodstains from the night before

Roll from the bed to the floor

And ponder the actions of last night

Look down at the scars

Lasting marks of fading pleasures

Back to how it is

Pretending all is as it should be

Fix your smile to look real

Mask eyes the smile never touches

Ask all the while... was it worth it?



Inside you beg - When will I break?

Inside you cry out - When will this numbness end?

A side wonders - Will I feel life again?

You need to know - Will I ever stop destroying myself?



Dusk hides Winters sorrows

From all the rest but not from him

With him shadows reveal your scars

And silence tells your story

Disappointment in his eyes

Cut through the false shields around you

His is the pain you should have felt

Watch his horror as your world erupts in anguish

Tear yourself apart

Wanting to hide him from this pain

Silently pray he still thinks you're worth it...



Inside you still plead - When will I break?

At night you cry out - When will this numbness end?

Alone you wonder - Will I feel life again?

Longing to know - Will I ever stop destroying myself?



All knowing eyes behold your suffering

Desperate to hold you close

sadly watching you fight yourself

Patiently waiting, Oh so long

For you, to call on him

Keeping you safe from harm when you let him

Feeling your pain grow each day

Waiting eagerly for your permission

So he can tell you; you're worth it



Inside you still beg - When will I break?

Clawing at walls you cry out for this numbness to end

In silence you wonder - Will I feel life again?

Desperate to know - Will I ever stop destroying myself?



Each one wraps arms around you

And tries to sooth your fears

You are worth more...

You are so strong...

I will hold you til the numbness fades

You will feel life in my arms

Look through my eyes, the destruction will end

You are mine to love,

And safe in this bed,

Please remember that...
