What words are left in this
Bloody Tongue
What words are left in this
Decaying Shell

How can I speak with this
Broken Mind
How can I weep with this
Burdened Heart

So foolish I've been
My broken body is the price
So foolish I seem
My darkened soul is the reward

These tears
I fear to shed
These keys to pain
I will not show

Once I could look into your eyes
Now it seems all I can do is apologize
Once I could laugh at your jokes
Now I fear to smile

How do I repent
When I'm so confused
How do I say I'm sorry
When I don't know my own mind

My eyes stare off
Into some unknown
My heart looks to help
But there's only a void
I wrote this a while ago, but it was my first good poem, so I wanted to put it here
