Nothing but a memory

Shattered broken and blue by the words you have carved into my soul I can no longer breathe I can no longer feel my heartbeat, your darling eyes are just a cover of up of your darkened bitter soul that has captured every bit of light I had left in me I am empty gone lifeless like nothing ever was, like I never was I have gone my body is no longer mine you have taken over every thing my mind my thoughts my heart my body, I'm nothing but an old memory that you look back upon and smile and laugh and say she was a great one she was one us, but now i'm just a broken shell of a girl that you once knew I am no longer in all of the chaos you bring me I no longer wake up on the floor crying at 3 am you no longer have these chains  holding me down with my own thoughts and insecurities I have finally broken free from your cold traitorous hands you no longer owe me I own myself, but every once in a while you you creep back into mind and sometimes I let you but then I realize you can’t harm me you can’t control me anymore i'm free of you.

This was about me feeling like I was held captive by my anxiety and I felt broken I felt alone and I felt like I just cound breathe and no one knew how I was feeling because no one cared enough to ask!
