In this body....
By hopeless
There once was a mighty light in me
That all who befriended this shadow could see
and through the years of pain and misery
that light began to grow unmersifully dim
with a threat of inextinction growing within
the life laid before me became so clear
when all my helplessness drew me near
to my one and only fear
as the days pass by
we are all wondering why
our best seems to not be enough
this life has become so rough
bumps and bruises all over
i just cant seem to roll over on my side
im stuck in this position
lost in your wonderful disposition
and now
these black lips
bring unwanted hearts
this broken face
brings the world apart
and this broken body
is where i start
this is a horrid reminder
of what i have put my self through
and i have no time to start this life anew
this silver heart just wont shine
these red lips refuse to be mine
these broken wrists begin to hurt
in the tightness of my shirt
these long legs covered in bruises
from fights that cause your abuses
these hopes have died
and i have tried
no more will this life be ruined
through my thoughts of mass confusion
adieu
to those who tried there best
to understand me
so now i rest
