Unnoticed

Unnoticed

my body is broken but
the tears will not come
the pain never stops

i remember and forget

just to remember again

i am lost in the struggle
pushing, hoping, waiting
screaming, crying, and praying

wanting to be saved
waiting to save myself

it is behind the wall
where the memories lie

the door is cracked
the lock is broken

my heart is empty
my mind is shattered

together it forms
someone who is not real

together it forms
the truth
and a lie

where hiding means safety
where protection means pretending

and smiling

lay my soul bare
there is nothing left to hide

the emptiness consumes me
as i slowly disappear
