Who? Me? Me Who?
Inside of me you grow
Becoming more than me
Then you start to show
And I'm suddenly less of me
You take over eating me alive
Devouring from within
On my misery you thrive
If I stop to take a breathe, you'll win
Do I have any chance to survive
Soon I am to drown
You sink me deeper into the sea
I can't find words or make a sound
Am I still me?
The flounder pull me out
As I search for a life preserve
The silent words I meant to shout
"is this what I deserve?"
With so little time I have not long to doubt
A voiceless whisper rings in my ears
Saying "dream of paradise, close your eyes"
And down drop distorted tears
Concerning itself with broken lies
Falling farther from reality
I find that I am missing parts
You poison me selfishly
And I'm not sure from where the pain starts
Who exactly is the real me?
I take a breath and hold it in
The darkness is getting rather deep
From inside you rip from my skin
And I find a place to drown and sleep
An endless sky
I reach to the sun with my hand
I try to soar, to fly
But find I am sinking in quick sand
Wait . . . Who am I?
