bottle of life

Looking inside the empty bottle; all alone inside,
Feeling numb as my body throttles; with tears to hide.
depressed but isolated; hoping no one will see,
My nameless face degraded; the girl I'll never be.

Too weak to stop the tears,
Too vulnerable to hide my fears,
Too paranoid that everyone hears,
Too trapped to tell my peers,
I am strong enough to run,
But too frail to erase what's done.

Looking deep into your eyes; alone I start to fall,
Tears fall and begin my demise; vulnerability standing tall.

Too weak to stop the tears,
Too vulnerable to hide my fears,
Too paranoid that everyone hears,
Too trapped to tell my peers,
I am strong enough to run,
But too frail to erase what's done.

Now the bottle fills; with emotion and pain,
Now i erupt and blood spills; driving me insane.
So i seal the bottle tight; hoping no one will know,
I struggle and fight; with holes in my heart left to sew.

Too weak to stop the tears,
Too vulnerable to hide my fears,
Too paranoid that everyone hears,
Too trapped to tell my peers.

I'm already gone away,
My body left to decay,
In darkness I lay,
With nothing more to say.
