Remember

/ Nyx

I exist as a shell

My soul in eternal hell

The pain is too much

So I shut it all away

Lost again today

Lost my will to live

I did the best I could

I tried to distract

I tried to talk it through

I tried to push away from myself

Before I slammed the knife through

Yet here I am

Bleeding on the inside

Not bleeding out

I am grateful and yet I am not

For the battles I have fought and won

I fight for strength but today I have gone numb

Succumb to the pain I can no longer endure

All I can do is remember what I fight for

  2. This was such a good poem! I really like your tagline too “Poets bleed from the heart and soul.” It’s so true.
    I would really appreciate it if you could check out my blog and give me necessary feedback.
