no one listens
no one cares
no one understands
no one hears
a fire burning brightly in my eyes
smile concealing my lies
pleading, begging crying for help
a last desperate frantic yelp
each day a new sword pierces
thrusts itself into the bottom of my heart
scarlet tears drop from every vein
a vehement covenant to end this pain
but this sword stays by my side
because all other hopes have died
im useless, hopeless, a pathetic mess
a broken child he must address
god beckons me with innocence
the devil drags me with arrogance
i pierce the sword into my arm
inviting him the world goes numb
