Hollow Shell

This is it; I’m done
My heart still beats, yet no warmth flows through my veins
My face is an emotionless mask, and I feel nothing inside
Tears pour from my eyes, yet they offer no relief
From the pain and torment I’ve subjected myself to
Life is cruel, and I’m merely one of its foolish victims
I’ve irrevocably damaged the lives of the people who matter to me
No matter what I say or do, I can never make up for it
I’m in a dark and unstable place
I can’t find the light and set myself free
Life isn’t worth living with this pain I’m going through
So why not just end it all with two momentary pains?
And watch my life bleed out of this hollow shell of the person I once was.
