The cleansing
I am rotting from the inside out.
I’m living as a shadow in your world of self doubt.
Every missed opportunity is like a shot through my gut.
Every moment of silence is another deep cut.
Will you save me or will you take me out?
It’s so ******* lonely in this dark empty house.
Too broken to love, too damaged to care.
Just a sad stupid girl with dumb purple hair.
My body is covered in scars and imperfections.
Crocodile skin, and a warped self reflection.
No, don’t you touch me for it’s far too late.
The pains already there, I have crossed the black gate.
Into the graveyard, it feels more like my home.
With the skeletons and ghosts, we’re together alone.
Just another memory lost and forgotten.
I’m just a small wisp of wind in a large field of cotton.
So leave me behind, and spare me your words.
I’ll shed this body at last, and be one with the birds.
