Empty dream - Delete files Y /N ?
I've fought tooth and nailFor my place in this world,
Broken all the rules just to prove
To those imbecilic fools that I
Am worth as much as them,
But in the end I'm here, alone,
All my fighting to survive,
Blinding rages and depression
Tears shed in pain and anger,
All that took away reality,
Now I look around and see my war
I am the only survivor,
Everybody's dead,
And in the end they won,
Proved they were better than me,
Stronger, cleverer, loved,
While I was left to waste
By those I had called family,
And all that fucking hate,
That drive to be someone,
Anyone at all, lost - broken
I lie on a bed of thorns
Each one lovingly staked out
By my tortured mind,
And nothing now,
The empty promise of acceptance
Gone, drifted away, dust,
Like the bodies I now lay to rest,
All that emotion where did it go,
All that pain, anger and shame,
All the pride in being me,
But now I'm nothing,
Empty, emptied of love
No tears to humanize me,
No more wings to soar on dreams,
Just stark plain reality,
Nothingness encoumpassing
My mind, a virus threading
Through the network of my brain,
Deleting all those files
That made me live,
Memories of love, lust and hate,
Figments now, drifting, deleted,
System reboot,
Hello, who are you?
Who am I?
