Perhaps I'm Alone

My mind keeps going blank
swiftly moving too and from
over thinking to no emotion
it's like I've been partially erased

Whispers cry out to my hurting heart
urging the pain to make me feel alive

People in uniforms stare at me
pin me down and stab at me
I scream out unheard
confused I weep

Whispers cry out to my hurting heart
urging the pain to make me feel alive

Zombified I mumble nothing
scratching at my scabby arms
bits of blood splitter splatter
I don't want to say goodbye

Whispers cry out to my hurting heart
urging the pain to make me feel alive

Tonight I stare at the dark sky
a beautiful painting on the ceiling
I smile for a while then stop
My mind keeps going blank
