Have I Scared You
Fear and agony
Have pushed away
Any rational thought.
No longer is a smile sweet
But it’s filled with
Daggers and Ice.
Silence is bliss,
Speaking and listening
Causes more pain that I bear.
Strength, I have lost
I feel nothing.
Being numb takes it all away.
Hurt me. I won’t cry.
Give me the knife,
I’ll start the cut.
We’ve been here for a while
People have pushed you and me
Have you been pushed to insanity?
Insanity’s spark has completely flamed
We don’t reason with each other
Will you kill me first?
Should I stop?
Am I scaring you?
Shame. I’ve only just begun.
We were happy,
What happened to us?
Was it her?
That woman that haunts
The outermost regions
Of your mind.
Do you love me
Or do you love
Her?
Scared yet? I hope not.
Let the Hunt begin.
I’ll hurt you good.
Allow me to give
You a head start
The first punch
Maybe you can
Knock me out
Before I pull my knife
I’ll slam you into the
Wall.
Don’t try to run.
I’ll hunt you down.
Isn’t funny
How you used to scare me?
Speak your mind.
I’m a big girl
I can take it.
Oh, I’ve said too much.
I think you’ve finally
Had enough.
Sign our souls away to the
Devil.
Send me home.
Let me show you
The scars you’ve left
All the pain you’ve caused.
It’s all here, every little mark
You’ve left on me
I remember it all.
Broken
And bloody
One the floor.
You see? Being
Numb isn’t bad,
It only hurts those around you.
