Staring out the window,
I gaze at the world beyond
Lifeless trees
Haunting winds billow
Journals spread across my bed,
Filled with the emotions in my head
Unwritten stories about life
Shadows of the days I live
Memories flood my brain
Pain something I can no longer feel
It's out of my grasp
Just one cut
To know I'm alive
Knowing I'm still here
Living like I'm already a ghost
Emotions come and go
Feelings slither through my veins
Feelings of life alone
Even friends don't understand
Talking is a waste of breath
Emptiness envelopes me
Sugar coated smiles
Fake laughs all around
Dying inside
And no one even knows

Ahhh, very good
I know exactly how you feel, that deep loneliness and unhappiness is the same inside me so I can relate. I do not cut however, if this is a true poem, feel free to talk to me. Wonderful poem and so deep.
