Written from a turning point in my life.. I really want to know what you guys think!!

~You Can't Hurt Me Anymore~

I'm lost
Within myself, my head
My heart is broken
Lying on the floor
Several pieces missing
The tiredness
Becomes absolutely unbearable
I mope
Unaware that I have feelings
You stole them from me
All of them
You took everything
All the love I had to give, and
You ruined it
Ripping my soul to shreds
You had your heart broken
So you had to break mine too
I'm tired of the tears
Sick of looking at myself
My face so red and flushed
Streaked
Where the tears ran
Off my chin they would fall
I can't admit
That I love you
Because I don't want to
I just want that look
The look of passion
To return to your eyes
The wonderful sensation
That ran through your touch
I want it all back
But I've run away
Somewhere you will never go
You will never find me
Because I'm somewhere
Lost among souls
Like the living
Amongst the dead
I' so far away now
I've driven myself insane
It's the only place I feel safe
I'm lost and gone
Now you can't hurt me anymore
