Tell It

Loving!
I have never been so FULL.
Now I'm empty!
My heart strings you no longer PULL!

Hating!
So much RAGE!
Your love for me...
I used your violence to GAGE!

Hurting!
I'm BLEEDING!
Your demons have given you enough REASON to feel righteous in your TREASON! 

Praying!
On my KNEES!
Scarred arms covered with SLEEVES!

Sinning!
Good vs EVIL!
All my attempts are made FEEBLE!

Burning!
On FIRE!
All these head games! 
I have grown TIRED!

Shaking! 
So AFRAID!
I have nothing left to give!
Please stop! 
I want to LIVE!

Living!
Every breath I took for YOU!
Now I'm just existing! 
Breathing because I'm supposed TOO!

Dying!
Every moment felt like the END! 
I'm still here!
Missing my FRIEND!
