Young and broken
Dreams left hopeless
A life that was stolen
By people who said that they loved me
By people who said they would stand by me
Just a husk of a shattered soul
A lost vision
I'm out of control
Drowning in my own conscience
Drowning in the immeasurable amount of lies I've been told
What am I doing
Why can't I breathe
The air is suffocating
Why can't I be okay
It's just hollow words
A comfort to those
Those who can't understand the pain
The trauma
The heartache
Words left unspoken
Lives left unknowing
Suppressed emotion
Memories blocked by the pain
Altered by trauma
Better to forget
Left only with regret
Regret of a life I could have lived
Regret of a living lie
Just a pitiful sight to behold on your eyes
Drown me in your lies
And maybe I will realize
That I was never alive
After all this time

My soul has truly been left tattered and scarred, if anyone relates to this just know you are not alone
