Gone
Empty
Alone
Worthless
Pushed to the limit,
But holding out for a savior.
About to fall,
But holding onto the hand of a stranger.
Trust invested in you.
With the hope you see those promises through.
I've been a shattered shell for too long.
Trusting my judgment, then being proved wrong.
Never knowing when the time is right,
To stop crying myself to sleep at night
I feel nothing
No words
No life
Just an empty shell.
I'm stuck under a spell.
Drifting further into a black hole.
Shattered and lifeless, my life takes a toll.
My body is being taken over, yet I still feel
nothing. Nothing at all.
My heart being treated like a kickball.
Thrown around, beaten, forgotten about.
Those dangerous thoughts that follow the doubt.
I just want it all to end.
I don't want to feel the pain anymore.
There's nothing left to fight for
Before I know it I'll be chasing the sun.
I'm done. With Everything. I'm done.
I feel nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
Worthless
Alone
Empty
Gone
