My Spirit Weakened

by Laura   Nov 7, 2007


What light that once
Shone in my sparkling,
Bright eyes is gone,
What remains is but darkness...

what strength i had to smile
Can only be summoned when
Tears can't escape the cracks
Of my darkened eyes...

You hold me in the most
Warmest embraces,
Yet still I shiver from the
Chilling feeling in my broken heart...

Shattered are the remaining
Pieces of my heart,
I've never felt so much
Pain in my life...

Unless you include the times
I've watched my red
Blood dripping slowly onto the
Bathroom floor...

Scars tell stories,
Keep secrets,
There isn't much else
A scar can do...

I hide in my room,
Alone and frightened,
I sit in the corner,
I close my eyes...

Is it all just a
Terrible nightmare?
A nightmare i can't
Wake from...

I shiver in the
Cold and dark night,
I wish i could
Be warm and safe again...

My spirit broken,
My very soul darkened,
I'm forever searching for
My lost inner light...
