Shattered Glass
My mind is filled with void
I can't exhale
Nor breathe out.
I'm choking on all these words i cannot speak
Like shattered glass they
Ache and bleed
So much it hurts on the inside
That i can't even cleanse
Those tiny, insignificant pieces of pain
And free myself from this guilt
That's digging so deep into my skin.
Break me, crush me
I don't care anymore
Ignore me,
I'm too tired to care back
I'm too bruised to even notice.
It's still my body
That takes hits quietly.
Bitter with all my sore
I've tried to escape
Not my first attempt,
Yet not my last
I'm still breathing
I'm still fighting.
I am no longer my own hero...
Lights out...
I need to rest.
