A million words dance through my head
Ghosts revealing what I’ve left unsaid.
A light breeze wafts through the air
Inside I wonder why you care.
Is it my smile? My looks? My charm?
These things I used; I myself brought the harm.
I broke myself down and threw me away,
For my wall I have to pay.
Your voice, it echoes in my head.
It’s a wonder that I’m not dead.
Sleepless nights and haunting dreams
Inside my head echoes the screams.
They’re trapped from within and can’t get out,
Won’t I help them cease the soul drought?
My soul got lost within this mess
Without it, my wounds I cannot dress.
I feel so lost and empty now,
To fix myself, I don’t know how.
My simple fix comes with a cut,
Still, no relief from despair in my gut.
I shake and tremble with every scar,
To be the best, I’m not up to par.
