Roulette

Roulette

A Poem by Sarah Jaymes

I don't know who I am anymore, all I see is used and worn out skin.
No potential or worth will show, my beauty is held within. 
Stiff and still, innocence is a sin. I hate this old bed, remove me from my coffin. 
Mentally sick, coffee and cigarettes. Eyes wide open, another night sleepless. 
Cold hands and feet, buried in regret. Feeling incomplete, wish I could forget. 
Try to shake me from this a coma, without becoming upset. 
Gambling happiness away, give my life to roulette. 
Wish I could run, from this monster I’ve become.
