My mind has decided
My heart follows its call
I wish now to die
To stop living, forever, at all
My words beat all around me
Living ink spots the air round my head
Reminding me always that
Love and care worthless are
My heart it is empty
It is Nothing I hide
You love a bright mask
But nothing lives inside
I used to be full
I remember it well
Before the darkness
Stripped fullness away
It was not abuse
That emptied my soul
But your lack of belief
In whatever I was
The abuse of course helped
It whispered words in my ear
It proved I was worthless
A husk nobody could love
So I made up a mask
And I changed it at will
I made friends, made them laugh
They could not see my void
So what I have left
Is nothing at all
I am not, I love not
Never can, never will
