insecurities bleed out of my torn skin
as sweet relief slowly makes it's way in
but no one cares that I sit here crying
and no one thinks of me as I sit here dying
I could disappear and no one would notice I was gone
and so I wear my smile like a shield but not for long
cause my reflection is starting to fade away
cause even the mirror doesn't care about me anyway
chorus
they use me for their own personal satisfation
and then after that I am a ghost missing in action
waving my hands in the air will they notice me
haunted by things inside I wonder where I could be
am I real or are these images in my head
when I speask do people hear what I have said
am I bleeding or are the voices that I hear
and why does the darkness trigger my fear
existing in the world I am just an empty face
happiness is a stranger to me that I want to taste
I would sacrafice anything to not be broken anymore
if breathing prevents happiness than what am I doing it for
chorus
if I could rid myself of one moment of my fantasy
maybe it would be enough to bring me back to reality
if I could zap these thoughts out of my brain
then maybe it would be enough to end the pain
chorus
Yikes, this sounds haunted and painful...emotions captured well here...that's what poetry is for, let it all out and share...Pam
