I want to tell you what happened

So long ago

I remember the acid burning on my cheeks

The torture and loneliness was unbearable

But you were never there

I can’t breath

My insides burn from it all

I curl up on the floor

My silent screams echoing in my head

The memories kill me slowly

I’ve become so numb to it all

Death is meaningless

Anguish is all that’s real

But then I end up on the floor again

Because my defense for one second was shattered

The memories when alone are nothing

But the sum

They all add up to my demise

Did you know there are times

Times when I screamed for pain and death

My smile was never real

But you never knew that

Instead you’re too absorbed

In your own self-indulgence

Can you even see past the surface?

I’m alone with nothing but these nightmares

You’ll never help

No, you’ll only cause more suffering

I know because you have already done it

Just another deadly memory you’ve given me
