Slowly being
Eaten
From the inside out
Watching the world
Through glazed eyes.
Clawing
At the one-way mirror
Watching
As I am destroyed
Unable to stop it.
Bubbling up
From the depths
Of my ash ridden soul
My destruction,
My end.
Slowly being eaten alive,
Mind receding into the confines
Of its own prison
Unable to fight
The festering disease.
Forced to live
With a façade of happiness
Masking my face.
Slowly fading
Into the darkness.
Unable to fight
Eyes begging for help;
Begging
Despite being ignored.
Helpless cries,
Muffled the sounds
Of happiness
Slowly destroyed
By the growing darkness.
Happiness is something
To always be out of reach,
Never obtained;
A fake goal
To make us keep going.
Slowly being devoured
By the need for another.
Fading deeper
Into the darkness
Eaten alive from the inside out.
Slowly devoured
By the darkness;
Disappearing.
Just another face
In the crowd.
