If I Showed You The Void... Poem by Aimee Nell

If I showed you the void where my soul once was,
If I showed you the pain in my heart,
If I showed you the scars criss-crossing my skin,
Would you tear it all apart?
-
Let me heal again.
-
If you saw these hollow eyes,
If you saw this walled up mind,
If you saw the burns on my arms,
Would you take it all away again?
-
Leave me bleeding.
-
If you saw me crying over words once said,
If you saw the last words I had written on the page,
If you watched me point the gun at my head,
Would you try to stop me?
-
Let me die.
