Inside

I am a shell...empty and void of life

Stuck in this space of turmoil and strife

Lacking in feelings of happiness and joy

I feel like a discarded book or broken toy

Tossed to the side like common trash

My tears I'm shedding have turned to ash

You've shut me out and left me alone

What sin did I commit? How can I atone?

They stole you away - forced us apart

You have all of my existence, including my heart

I hide the pain that's in my mind

Day by day, I'm further behind

But when my life begins to fade

We'll think upon the choices made

Blood stained grass, erased by time that's twisted

Will you or anyone remember that I existed?
