Zombie
The longing to be free
from what is inside me
For I feel nothing anymore
Light has passed me by
while darkness has settled in
Emotion are no longer present
Tears have all dried up
Nothing stirs within my soul
No more dreams do I have
My hopes I can not even remember
I awake each morning
to the same emptiness
Something has left me
WHAt, I haven't a clue
Its been year since I felt love
not due to no one bieng there
for I have many whom love me
I just can't seem to be one of them
I feel that I've traded my soul
All have no meaning no care
like a zombie walking among the living
for it is all a lie
The way I act, a show
Yet I dont want this anymore
I don't know how to get me back
For so many years
I've acted like everyone around me
that somewhere I lost the real me
for when she appears
noone seems to approve
so back into the dark she goes
I just want to be free
from judgment and ridicule
There is only one person
Whom I can be me fully with
I know she will not judge me
She will listen
maybe its because
she is just as crazy
Maybe its cause she understands
For I truly believe it is cause
THAT PERSON IS ME!!!
