Deadened Soul

Reanimate my soul from deep within, I feel like one of the undead, Still walking, moving and breathing But unfeeling, uncaring, unseeing. I feel coldness in my veins, It flies through my bloodstream, The iciness freezes everything That ever made me human. Darkness covers me like a Heavy blanket suffocating me, I'm choking on everything yet Nothing, panic sets in. I'm fighting to breathe, to Be allowed the freedom To do as I choose, I'm Weighed down by expectations. I hold my knees to my chest, Curl into a tight ball and I Let these crimson tears Flow from my eyes. I cry for the pain, for the Loneliness, the hope I once Had, for broken promises, Betrayals and a still-beating heart...
