burning flesh and smoldering carcases
the stench fills my nostrils
my eyes water and stomach turns
screeching voices coming strait from hell
scratching though my ears
yet I sit and do nothing at all
my pride is in the way
blood still fresh and steaming smooth as ever
slithers down my tongue
dripping into the hole some call my heart
tears burning down my face
drops of fire scaring as they go
but no one knows they’re there
all is well in my world
to all that pass me sitting here
They say I am happy
They see the smile
plastered stiffly across my face
or hear the laughter that echoes hollow off the walls.
through my day none question my sanity
but every night as the sun dies
I hide from myself.
I am afraid of my shadow.
shattering glass
doors being slammed shut
an undecided maniac
Please tell me who I am
so I can be rid of myself.
I try to kill the pain
but as I bleed I do not die
I lay cut open blood spilling to the floor
but they walk by and see nothing
I can hide it well
I am a pretender
now only a ghost of what I once was
a skeletal structure with a thin layer of skin
stretched tightly over my bones
if they could truly see they would run in fear
screaming for their life...I know it
and as I erode away every day the same
I wonder if tomorrow I could live.
