Softly and numbly,
I'm falling down.
My memories disappear
Right before my eyes,
My heart is taken
But love has faded,
Dreams were shattered
And fairytales ruined.
Hope is now hidden
All friends have left.
Promises were broken,
Now happiness dimmed.

Silently and secretly,
Cautiously and ingeniously,
I'm breaking.
My feelings evaporate
And I slowly desintegrate,
Clothes don't fit
And mumbles go unheard.
Pills have been swallowed,
Chances have been used
And the answers are wrong.
Scars have healed
Tears are dried,
Yet smiles are faked.

Breaking and falling,
Disintegrating and disappearing,
My thoughts dissolve,
And I'm all alone.
My parents have lied
My sister's unimpressed
My brother has moved on
And no longer needs my help.
Strangers just ignore me,
Peers could care less,
God has given up on me,

But it's probably for the best. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 177 [topic] => 61 [informant] => xXcrossedXx [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

I have felt this way before. Stay strong, and God didn't give up on you, you gave up on Him. You can fix that though if you want. I hope things are getting better for you. If you ever need to talk Pm me.
