PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Vicious lies searing through my skin

Another night I succumb to this rageous temptation

I try ot reach out to you, I even try to scream

Still you are unable to hear me, is this a horrendous dream?



I cannot remember a time ever before

When I was not obssessed with tearing myself apart forevermore

I cannot keep lying and pretending everything is alright

When constantly I find myself clutching the knife ever so tight



I would not be suprised if I was told that I did not have a heart

Not since I started tearing everyone I cared about apart

Voices running a marathon inside my mind

Trying to make believe that bitter lonliness is all I will ever find



Endlessly weeping, crying crimson from these veins

How did I ever become so insane?

Craving the need to become too numb to feel

All because I know these wounds will never heal



I cannot take of this mask that keeps me at a safe distance from everyone

I am better off not letting the world see what I have become

So as I always do, I will paint on a smile

and once again play pretend

Make up the same old lies

and play the part of the happy girl again
