Poem: I can't trust, I'm emotionally dead
you can see the scars where I've bled
there’s been a hole through my heart so long
I've learnt to fake it and smile along
how do you live when so much of you dies?
I see the world through troubled eyes
it hurts so much deep down inside
as a teen every night I cried

the same silent tears run down my face
as I turn off the light my pillow I embrace
finally I sleep but wake with a scream
once again frightened from a terrible dream

no one knows I’m near to death
don’t be sad when I take my final breath
the pain will stop when the beats of my heart cease
please don’t cry for me for I'm now at peace
...
