To you... i'm dead

by jaymi   Aug 25, 2005


The silent tears that i hold within my soul
the bruises that rest upon my broken heart
i wanted to be your everything forever
but my life, my memories, destroyed all hopes
you left me all alone in my biggest time of need
when i tried to answer your question you asked
i tried to stop because it was just so painful
you watched me cry, you watched me bleed
and yet you let my enemies destroy all of me
if you had truly understood all that happens
would you have really let my soul fly away?
i tried to show you all that was in my heart
the bruises, the scars, the devastating memories
but you turned your back to find what you wanted
i cried out for you and when you didn't hear me,
i let myself go into my dark and lonely world
and when i cried people would always stare
they never asked to know what was wrong
they mocked me and walked away laughing
i was so heartbroken and nobody in my life cared
i came home with the blood shot eyes of pain
my mother said hello and started raving at me
it was my daily ritual for my daily life of torture
and yet behind the walls people could hear her scream
they never knew about the hidden razors
the ones hidden beneath my mattress and in my draw
i hid in my closet to try to escape everything
and in my dreams i died from the over dose
