Dying inside-out

I have no need to hurt myself
you think you know me
all an illusion
you call me
emo
goth
geek
you don't know me
i have no need to cut myself
i'm bleeding as we speak
not on the outside
but within
the knife is buried
in my heart
every beat brings pain
everyday worse than before
the knife buries itself
deeper everyday
i die
everyday
my soul screams
by now my heart
is numb
but also hurts
it's cold
and on fire
blood oozes
from the wound
no visible scars
outside
all of mine
are hidden
inside
