PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

should I embrace the darkness and reject the light

for my eyes have turned darker than the night

don't you see the abyss when you look into my eyes

or are you just watching as every inch of me dies

is my camaflouge smile that convincing to everyone

that they don't even know that the life inside me is gone

no one has thought to check my pulse for life

they are programmed to think everything is all right



Chorus

Just because I am breathing

doesn't make me alive

little by little

I am dying inside



my reflection has dissappeared

all that's left inside me is pain and fear

I am broken and can not be fixed

doesn't anyone have anything in their bag of tricks

to make me feel okay again

so i no longer have to pretend

the sun is hiding from me during the day

and there's nothing I can do to make me feel okay

Chorus



I am bleeding

I am needing

something to me me real

so that pain isn't all I feel

Chorus
