Nobody

I wrote this in my tough time, just needed to get it off my chest

Nobody

 Nobody's there to hold me when I'm scared,
Nobody cares when I break down in tears,
 Midnight silence broken by silent pains,

I am my own hand to hold.

I am the only one who can comfort me when all seems cold.

One day there might be another hand to hold,
I dream and pray for the silence to be gone,
No more 3am screaming matches,
No more hiding red marks and bruises,
When times are rough, you pin it on me,
When your life falls apart, oh no, its never your fault, it has to be mine,
No point in even trying to explain, only seen as arguing,
I can't even tell you it never happened, that it was never me,
Break me down, crush me, tear me apart and feed me to the vultures.

Time to put my fake face on and pretend to smile,
When all I want is to just give up and cry,
Nobody to hold me, except myself,
No warm hands and smiles telling me "It'll be alright",
Only tears, terror, screaming and fighting.

This is the place I have to call home.

Hey M.B.!!....this is TRUE poetic Melancholy!!.....that place where you can no longer see the light in anything.......where you know it's ALL on you.....and No One else!!........A powerfully sad state of affairs......There were a few lines that struck me hard ~

                      ~ "....tear me apart, and feed me to the vultures.."

                      ~ "Time to put my fake face on and pretend to smile.."

These are lines that are so universally moving that it gives the whole an air of realism at its worst.......But when you add your gift with words like you did with ~ Tear me apart ~ Feed me to the Vultures ~ it becomes so much more!!....ALL STARS & PINNED!!.......I Love the 'rawness' of this.....I t gives me hope for the Author to rise above the predicament!!......BRAVO!!......T xo   : )
