let it out

i want to scream,

yet no noise comes out of my body,

i want to cry,

yet my eyes run dry,

i want the pain to exit my body,

i wish it would wash off,

but all i've done is made my skin raw and red,

what have i become, and where did i go?

i am here yet my mind seems to be miles away,

-i'm so tired of existing in the dark
