Already a Victim

I'm trying to breathe, but I can't find the air.
I'm trying to run, but I'm getting no where.
I'm trying to smile, but produce a mere frown.
I lift my head up, but my eyes- they face down.
I'm shouting out loud, but nobody hears.
I'm trying to listen, but deaf are my ears.
I try to stay calm, but yell angry words.
I'm trying to heal, but still the wounds hurt.
I'm crying salt tears, but dry are my eyes.
I try to be true, but wear a disguise.
I'm trying to live, but I do not see.
Death has already made a victim of me.

holly cow! i mean this is awesome, but i am hoping this isn't what you feel. it makes me so sad. it makes me stop and think if this is true or not. because i think everyone would be able to relate to this poem because doesn't death make everyone his victum?

i liked this poem imensely, (my spelling stinks, and i doubt thats right(sorry)) but i think we all feel as if we wish we were one way, and never can be, we find ourselved in a lifelong contradtiction, lets just all face it, life is a female dog in heat, if you get my drift, but i liked this poem, and i wish you the best of luck in the future
