Im I Still Alive
My heart has stopped beating
but, yet I am still breathing
I wonder if that will change?
People see me, greet me, and tease me
But they never ask for my name
I look around for my home
But no where do I belong
Am I to blame?
My eyes are blind
But, I can still see
Yet I couldn’t see past the truth for the lies
My life is over
But I am still here
It doesn't matter if I’ve been crying for years
Whatever’s happening to me isn’t over I fear
My legs are broken
But I still walk around, though my feet are no where near the ground
With each step there is pain
I wish I did not have to recall this day
I start to run but I fall so I call for help
But yet my cries are not heard nor felt
I have a mind
But it is dead
On many bad memories I have lived in dread
But, yet I have no time to think about such things
To be frank I have no time at all because all my time has gone
As I sit here and cry one thing goes though my mind
I am not dead but, am I really still alive?
