I live on...

by Lady Nik   Sep 28, 2009


I am blank
no feelings flow through
this heart of mine
blood pumps as
bone protects
my weak body
I live on.

I am empty
nothing comes to mind
as I stare at you
eyes filled with
water I spill
over to the
edge again.
I live on.

I am alone
no one misses me
I wish I were
missing in a world
behind dusty stars
in a crowed place
of loveless dreams
I live on.

I am scared
none of my
heroes can save
me from myself
scratching away
the skin that
covers the screaming
mass of scars
I live on.

I am gone
never again will
I speak to people
who will forget
I exist as soon
as time goes
by making photographs
fade to white
I live on.

    This is almost painful to read. I think everyone has been to this point sometime in their lives. An excellent piece of work.

    I really like the imagery you creates in this poem. Sad poems are not my favorites, but this one was good because it says all that some people would like to say but their words are lost within. You are a great poet. Keep it up 5/5, kel.
