Bones

if you peered through my Ribcage

you'd find an empty space

from the one I gave my Heart to

Who didn't put theirs in its place

I am no longer its owner

of the Blood within my Veins

it belongs to all the Memories

and the Drugs to numb the pain

the Brain in my Skull

is so flooded it could drown

in names of people who said they cared

but didn't stick around

all the words that I've been called

have replaced all of my Bones

even the Smile on my Lips

is no longer my own

there's nothing left of my Body

that Society hasn't touched

yet they have the Nerve to wonder why

I hate Myself so much
