The Nobody

My feet are moving
But the horizon stays just out of reach
Everyone is leaving
I watch their wings spread
And wish to fly with them
But my wings lie broken in the dirt
Just get me out of this nightmare called life,
Please take this knife to my heart
I know no one will cry
when I die
When I’m gone take my body
and burn so I may never return
Throw your pictures and memories of me into
the flames
Forget me
Bury my casket
In a deserted forest
Don’t ever return
Turn your back on me
like everyone before
I shall go willing
I don’t need
to pick the petals of flowers
to know I am alone
I am empty
I don’t cry anymore
My tears
dried up long ago like my soul….
