Bleeding Dry

We give brilliant advice

Yet we refuse to use them ourselves.

We sit there torturing us,

Without realizing what it does.

Our own emotions turn raw and weak

Until our hearts begin to obsessively seep.

Hiding our agonizing pain,

from which we become completely drained.

Do we love? Or should we hate?

Will we ever be fixed? Or always try to crawl out of this ditch?

Our chest burns from fury,

Our insides burn from hurt.

We don't wish for people to be like us, stuck in an endless shell

but how could we not want them to share our hell?

The past will never be the past to us,

We make ourselves live in it, thus it can never be masked.

Others try to cheer us up as if they care,

The voices tell you and I it's a lie,

why would someone care? Because the truth is, they wouldn't dare.

"I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had."
