Seemingly I am lost,
As if I am a ghost inside.
A piece has been taken,
Leaving my conscious to wonder where it may be.
...

The fears I have.
The things I see.
What you do not understand, is that you are only hurting me.
You say you want answer.
...

I refuse to be who you are.
I stand against what you do.
I am no longer a carbon copy of you.

We may look alike.
...

Come to me dear.
Hurt me one more time.
If you dare to try.
...

Its like living among another race.
Walking among those that you know.
But in reality there are excessive gaps in between.
...

...

A laugh that kills.
A smile that shreds.
The words of death.
The vile heart.
...

Once it has left,
It can not be returned.
Not one sentence.
Not one word.
...

My mind is a dark place.
It's sure enough to scare anyone who dares to try and comprehend,
Where my thoughts even begin.
For as I know my thoughts torment my very soul.
...

You tell me who I am.
But, I must disagree.
For you, do not know one thing.
All you examine is the surface.
...

Taking my hand,
You lightened my charcoal soul.

Taking my heart,
You mended what was broke.
...

Bubbles enclose us inside,
Trapping our hearts,
As well as our minds.
...

Old pictures,
With familiar faces,
That hold empty spaces.
...

I peal my eyes open,
Only to be put through hell.
While others see that all is well.
What an a illusion.
...

My head is about to explode,
Soon enough I know.

For what my eyes see,
...

The piece of you I hold in my hands.
The chain I swore would never leave my neck.
But now that my ties have been severed with you.
I know what I must solemnly do.
...

...

Things change.
People come and go.
And sometimes we're left alone.
But that's okay.
...

Looking at pictures I see happy and carefree faces.
There are girls holding hands and elbows perfectly placed.
I look and I am filled with envy.
I wish one of those girls was me..
...
