From a Moth to a Butterfly

So far in are the scars upon my soul

The cuts are now too deep to nourish

None shall heal or pass this blinding light

That I protect myself behind

I'm turning my back against the world I love

Even when I don't even realize it

Sometimes I feel so fake and I feel like

I

Don't

Deserve

You...

Now my mind swirls with reflections of hurt

Of pain, so much pain that I cannot

Recognize...

I'm so confused, so hurt, so wrong

So I destroy my beauty

Become something impenetrable

Something

I

Am

Not...

So why am I crying without shedding tears?

You will never understand

How I hurt

How I feel

How I love...

If I could I would will myself away from this reality

This one that is so...

Unreal...

But something prevents me from fading

From drowning in my sadness

It is you...

So much I do not deserve

So much that I must go through

Being eaten alive from the inside

By my own misfortune

Please, even when I say I am alone...

Promise me you'll always be by my side...

Don't

Ever

Leave me...

I like it, though it is really sad.

Being eaten alive from the inside. Brilliant.
This makes me feel like I'm reading someone's thoughts when I read it, simply because it's so emotional and personal. I really like this one. It's sad.
