I'm Still Alive

anguished

What would I give
for a bit of peace
or at least
some peace of mind?
What have I not given?
I've given my all
and know no peace
of any kind.
A darkness gnaws within me.
We wicked are granted no rest.
To cease the ache, I'd take my heart
and I'd rip it from my chest.
You see,
I've got to find some solace.
I've lost my will to carry on...
I cling to what is left of innocence
because the wholesomeness is gone.
And now...
I tire of my nights spent crying,
The intimacy lonliness and I share.
Why couldn't one kind soul give me a chance
and take the time to care?
My own desperation makes me sick.
Am I so incomplete?
I'm incapable of being weak; alone,
Of feeling obsolete.
How could anyone understand me
when I can't comprehend myself?
I dread being left and then forgotten
gathering dust upon the shelf.
All I have are words
and I read them in my head.
God though I know I'm still alive.
I mostly feel half dead.
And I hate it.
