To Be me

See me ;
Beat and badly broken
feeling as if my heart is choking on neglect.

Hear me ;
afraid and weeping
sobs that echo through my own creation of darkness

I am alone but surrounded by people that claim they care.

But still here i am covering up scars that still bleed, scars that do not show physically.

Scars that murder me mentally.

See me ;
covering up the feeling of neglect with smiles

Hear me ;
telling myself not to cry.

To be me is to slowly die.
