No matter how much I try,
I can’t make it stop,
Can’t help but let the clouds,
Drift over my mind,
Turning it numb,
And making me become unseeing,
Zoning out during times,
When I truly need to pay attention,
No matter how hard,
I push it back,
Fight it with all I have,
The slow cold dark feeling,
Of a life well ruined,
Consumes me,
How can I already be so dead,
When I’ve only just begun,
As I grew up I knew I’d die at a young age,
But I didn’t realize,
That it wouldn’t be a physical death,
Where I’d only be placed in a coffin,
And put underground,
I hadn’t known,
That’d it be the death of my soul,
Of the spirit I once cherished,
The slow torture of my caring heart,
That my eyes would go dull,
And I’d be able to see it,
Remembering that I actually liked them,
Before now when they were bright with colors,
Now I’m just one of the many people,
With dull eyes and a dead soul,
And I hope that the people who had caused,
My slow quiet death,
Are happy with what they’ve done,
And go to bed remembering,
What I once was.

I’m good during the day. But at night I wait.I wait for the one who’ll never return.
