My Reality

Shoot me down
Murder me willingly
Take everything
I have left inside of me
Take the hurt
The pain
The pride
Take everything
So I can no longer hide.
Take my pills
There just an escape
My reality
Is what the take away
Message the press
Tell them I caved
I can't handle anything
I feel it slipping away
-
Play a game
So I can hide
I don't want to be here
Leave me to take my life
A razor has etched
It's stories in my skin
Leave me alone
I can't let you in
-
Laughter is gold
If only for awhile
Then you'll take that gold
Smash it with a smile
Drown me in tears
You play the game well
I hope to God
You rot in hell
-
Run me to tears
It comes so well
So easy for you
To throw me into this well
I gave you everything
You took that from me
Now what is left
Not even a glimmer to see
your killing me slowly
Though you'd never tell
Your actions speak louder
Than your words ever will.

If you care about me at all, you won't ask.

Interesting. Again with the flare. I hope that whatever it is passes soon, but then again i do like the heat in your recent poems.

No need to ask, you words are loud and clear. This poem speaks of such a great loss the loss of your inner self. I know it well, but it is grand when you find her again. Never give up and ALWAYS beieve in tomorrow. xo
