ME

Nobody knows me.
Nobody will.
When someone gets too close
I stray away.
I fear love.
I fear hope.
I fear him along with myself.

The world is dark.
Cold and mystified.
I know the truth.
I know the lies.
I know my heart.

My soul is shattered.
In a million pieces it fell.
Lost in silence.
Crying still.
Who'll save me...
from myself?

The pains too much.
And I can't bear it.
Each passing moment.
Each timeless count.
I draw near to my fate.
Which will turn.
In the final breath.

I see him no more.
I feel him not.
He is gone.
I left him.
To hurt.
To cry.
To live.
To learn.
