...Sullen Desire

By SolApathy

...Sullen Desire

Empty feelings
No more dreaming
I can feel the screaming
Can’t express beyond my eyes
No tears I cry
Trapped in my soul
Nothing left of me
To express
My face
A mess
Bandages and tubes
From all the wrong moves
Didn’t try hard enough to die
Here I lie
Can’t escape this pain
I remain
Deathly still
No matter how strong my will
Body broken
Unspoken
Can’t even whisper to die
Tell my why you look in my eyes
Telling the doctors to try?
Why do you lie?
Talking like you don’t know why
Pretending I don’t want to
Die…
Strife echoes in my eyes
Your betrayal just another twist
in the darkness in which I
…Exist
