1 Reviews"I don't think I can take much more..." constructive criticism is greatly appreciated!
Sweet nothings fall upon deaf ears
Assurance I simply cannot hear
These thoughts that haunt me every night
They block of every ounce of light
A tiny smile is such a strain
I’m cold inside from all this pain
This façade is growing old
From hiding stories I’ve never told
The tears that I’m too numb to cry
Are buried safe beneath my lies
Feelings I refuse to feel
To keep reality far from real
Scarlet weeps from pale flesh
Blood and tears begin to mesh
A morbid dance across the floor
I don’t think I can take much more
Another nick, another slice
My body has to pay the price
Secrets carved in my skin’s surface
I truly feel that I am worthless
Drowning deep within my sorrow
I fear I will not see tomorrow.
