What's left of me?

By StAinedNblood

Suffocating in the blood that’s been shed
Alone, in the darkness of my own eyes
Again these arms are sore from trying to break this trance
Broken and cracked, but it still won’t let me go

Today when you looked in my eyes
You saw only your reflection, no life remained
I must confess inside I died
Even though I always cry, no one seemed to notice
This blood has soaked through, and now it’s all you see

I’m sorry I didn’t tell you before
But the pain took over and blinded me

I’m injecting the poison into my veins
Slowly everything is falling
I’m crawling to get away
But the poison is set deep inside me

Why are you yelling?
Do you not care that I’m trying to apologize
Just stop making these tears fall
Because your breaking the little left of me
I’m sorry that’s all I can manage to say

I have no choice but to leave everything behind
Just run away from the past
The taunting memories that remain
I have to leave you before it takes me too far away
But just know I said I was sorry
And this time I really do mean it
