This Is Me

I feel the emptiness inside me,
Everything seems lifeless around me.
All my thoughts have ceased to be,
all my memories are becoming a distant memory.

My dreams i cannot dream anymore,
I have no recollection of what I used to be.
I've lost sight of what I want to be,
I've forgotten what life used to be.

I'm scared of feeling love,
Because hate is the only emotion
That comes easily to me.

I've become someone I always hated to be,
someone I never wanted to be.
So many questions still unanswered,
I'm left with a weary soul
wandering around for them to be answered.
