PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

would you explain to me how to smile I seem to have forgot

the only smile I have left is the fake one that took it's spot

and every breath I take is more meaningless than the one before

I am stealing someone else's air that really needs it more

in the darkness all around I try to find a shadow I reconize

but they all seem so dead, none of them are really alive

and I wonder where is the sun that is supposed to shine bright

how come it's dark all the time and I never see any light



chorus

can I have one last laugh

before I dance with insanity

can I have one last laugh

before I fall into madness

cause I want to remember

how it feels to laugh

cause I know once the demons come

I will never laugh again



the demons sneak up on me breathing down my neck

I never know what to do or what to ever expect

my feelings are not tangible to me anymore

now I'm stuck with a deadness that I can't ignore

I can taste the hurt I have inside upon my lips

it stings me like the striking of a million whips

and I can't comprehend what it's like to feel happy

somewhere in the midst of the deamons I lost me

chorus



my mind is like a puppet that the voices control

my life was mine until the voices came and stoled

stoled my life, stoled my passion for everything

now I am going through the motions caring about nothing

there is nothing that makes me feel okay again

and I am so sick everyday of playing pretend

chorus
