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?
