My face dry,
And tight.
My lips are chapped,
And bleed when I smile,
If I smile.
My eyes bloodshot
Swallowed away by dark circles
That just seem to grow
With each night.
My throat sore from screams,
Screams brought forth by such pain
That you bestowed upon me
Never questioning if I could live my
Life carrying such a burden,
Such a pain that hides deep inside.
You just did what satisfied you,
Never thinking of me.
My soul
Scorched and scarred
By pain
And tears
That will forever fall
Causing such grief,
That nothing could erase.
My heart
Beat with such fear
And sheer hate
Nothing can be done,
To undo
What you've caused,
All I can do
Is salvage what may be saved,
And live my life,
Hoping and praying
That with each breath I take,
I can make it
One more day,
And then another...
