None of it was real.

My smile was practiced

in a mirror.

My lines repeated

to others ears.

I felt no spark,

no feeling,

no vigor.

It was all for my pleasure to watch

you break down.

You'll never understand

what I do for fun.

But it's never enough.

I'm always so tired,

I can't fall asleep at night,

the fear I may never wake up

consumes me.

the large amount of empty

pill bottles

pile up.

My mind can't comprehend

why or how

you can fall for someone. 

Scrape your knees so deep,

you scar. 

I've tried for years,

the weight of my questions

never lift off of my mind.

I'm bruised and it's everyone's fault.

I'll slowly bruise you too.

-H.I
