dead inside

September 11, 2011
By Anonymous

i am alive but now dead,
to why do i perish the color
red.

ghostly and grey,
my minds astray
how can i stay.

dead inside i've ,
lost my pride
when i see them i hide.

a bride of bones,
a groom of flesh
the organs not developed yet.

you see right through me as clear as a bottle,
I'm not the greatest model.

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN
