Hollow Shell
Rock solid,
You can't break me,
On the outside,
At least.
You choose to see no evidence,
Of the crime that was commited.
You would rather stay blind,
From the intimidatingly,
Scary,
Truth.
Inside I am dying,
A slow and painful death,
With no one by my bedside,
To watch me take my last breath.
Hollow am I,
The same child you raised,
The same girl you shaped.
No one was there,
When I was falling,
To catch me,
Before I crashed.
A faint flame of light,
Choking for life,
Still lives inside me,
Holding on.
I keep it there,
With all my might,
I try to stay alive,
But I can't do it alone.
