You made me feel like a ghost
Walking through our home,

But what hurts the most
Is that I feel alive when I'm truly alone.

I make a sound and you turn your cheek,
Yet I have to bear your pain when you speak,

But what about me?!
My heart bleeds

Much like yours...
You used to acknowledge it before.

Looking to disappear,
Safer outside, holding onto a fear

For not being important anymore,
What did life give me false hope for?

How can you be so shallow?
To talk about uplifting your soul but your burdens I still swallow

Down with the urge to scream,
I use my strength to hold it in, wishing this was a horrible dream.

Find a reason to kill me everyday,
Somehow to me you donate your pain,

But maybe it's okay,
I have no other purpose for now anyway....

Soon I'll feel alive,
Like my heart is still beating inside.

I'll face the world all over again,
But as of now I have to remember being here isn't the end.
