Failure

Don’t touch me, please, I’m not worth it any more,
My arms are cut and bruised, and my throat is sore.
I just want to lie here, and wallow in this pain,
Fall asleep and hope that I’ll never wake up again.

I just let them beat me, it was a one sided fight,
I know now that I was a coward and it served me right.
So please leave me alone, laying here on the ground,
And cover me with leaves, so I can’t be found.

Burn all the letters, let the dreams disappear,
Destroy all the evidence that says I was here.
Rip up all the pictures, they are long gone history,
And destroy the piece of your heart, that once belonged to me.

Author notes

A poem about being beaten up and feeling worthless.

Please tell me what you think
