Nothing and Nowhere

Lying in my bed,
The curtains drawn closed
I am a prisoner to myself.

Hear my sighs, drenched with despair
See my eyes, dripping with tears
Watch my make up,
Smudge black against my pale skin,
Throw your head back and laugh.
Laugh at my antics.
Laugh at my antics.

Don’t take me seriously,
That’s your plan, your concept, and your strategy
She’ll be fine,
Take it all away.
Take it all away.

Be grateful,
Your words whisper,
Making the guilt drip through me.
Just a spoilt brat, making a scene.
It’s simply my fault.
It’s simply my fault.

Happiness, once I thought to be near.
Now just a tempting far away illusion.
I want to pluck that apple from the tree
Listen to the snake’s sultry whispers.
Will I give in?
Will I give in?

Clench my fists,
Stop myself,
Let my tears
Splatter my clothes
Close my eyes
Wait for the time to pass
I will not give in,
I will not give in.

I will not give in,
Not yet.

You are SO good at writing....how dare you say you aren't?

I'm feeling really jealous grrrr. I love this poem, you never cease to amaze me.
