Dead Life

She's invisible to the ones that make her that way
A mask is worn over her
Her eyes are a dead black
And no one dares to look into them
Lifeless and Numb, sorrow stretches through her
Yet she still captures air
Red ice pumps through her veins
There's no sympathy for her heart
Lonliness fills her soul
As it is plucked from her
She rests beyond the grave
Where the souls of dead live

Sad Reality

When i say im fine
when i say im okay
i wish someone would look into my eyes
and ask me to tell the truth
if you knew what situation i was put in
you would know the pain that im in
everyone would have experienced real sorrow
but you dont know wat situation i was put in
and you dont know the suffering ive been put through
you can only scarcely imagine sorrow
because life's a sad reality

Finding Perfection..Is It Death?

Anyone who has sought this has failed
Some even died trying
Can't you see?
It's just not there, no such thing exists
It has gone extinct when the world was born
They are all looking in the wrong places
Searching for something unheard of
No one deserves it, can find it, and can earn it
There's only one way to acheive it

Life's basic principle..is imperfection
And anyone seeking perfection
Shouldn't be breathing
Death is perfection
But hey, death is the worst thing, right?
So death cannot be perfection
The irony of it all..
