I cry, but I shed no tears
I’m hurting, but I’m not bleeding
I’m dying, but my body’s surviving
I’ve been broken, but my scars don’t show
I’m withering away, but my body’s still ageing
I’ve lost sight of a future, but I am not blind
I cannot voice my angst, but I am not mute
I feel numb inside, but I can still feel my heart beating
I’ve lost my motivation, but I am still walking
I cannot breathe, but my lungs are still functioning
I cannot feel, but my pain still taunts me
I’ve lost the war, but I am still fighting my battle
I cannot continue living, but I am still alive
I cannot win, and I continuously be losing
This is the end
But I am still writing.

Damn, Scarlett, I’m running out of words to describe how absolutely beautiful your poems are.
This is how I feel exactly. Thank you very much. It is very comforting.
Thank you both xxx
