Cold and Alone

Cold and Alone

A Poem by A.C. Lei

Someone save me I'm dying
This darkness is eating me alive
It's bringing me to tears
I know it's been many years
Since I have felt like I'm wasting
And everything around me not worth anything
Tell me what am I supposed to live for?
I don't know anymore
It's haunting me to cry
This demon I've kept inside
It's killing me to smile
I don't want to lie
Don't wanna pretend anymore
The illusion of before
The scars I used to hide
They refuse to close
No matter how hard I try
I still can't see over the line
Can't be seen for what I am
Only for what I can give
Wouldn't fate suppose
To let me die inside?
Slowly and painfully living
Foolishly still believing
That the pain would disappear
Never to come back here
In the empty heart I own
Cold and alone
I'm cold and alone
