My cage

I can say it but you won't believe me
You'll say you do, but you don't deceive me
It's hard for me to say it, it's even harder to show it
I've been in a cage made by my own hands
A wall that keeps me out of reach
Out of touch with everyone around me
I hide my true identity like a hawk hiding his eggs
I do it because the darkness inside me can tamper all who is precious to me
Pollute them with my desperate need to be loved
My desperate need to be alone and not included

Because when i'm by myself i don't need to pretend
I don't need to show my smile to make them all think i'm happy
They also don't understand that asking to be with them is my survival method
I only live with them
I die when i'm alone, and i let myself die
I consume myself with darkness and I welcome it
I guess i'm too weak
Maybe there's nothing inside me
No one in there
No light
No flame
I borrow the ones around me
My body is my cage
And there's no one in it
