I've Let Myself Become a Victim

By no one at all

i am not me
no matter how nonsensical
that sounds
its the only
thing
i've got to cling to
right now
i am not me
not a
carbon copy
of what i used to be
i am a shell
empty
hard and
ridged
on the outside
consider me
self-perforated
mutilated
i am not who i was
anymore
i'm not witty
i don't glow
exude happiness
cleverness
i am nothing
right now
and you
did this to
"me"

...that word that i can never mean again
