Worthless

The red at dawn has awakened 

My wretched soul still weary 

I force a smile on my face

Hiding every ugly scar merely 


I deeply conceal the emotions

Whose burden I can no longer bear

A heartache which is incurable

It’s a truth that’s blatantly there 


Thoroughly fatigued by the dread

Which stubbornly sits within 

The battle is to surrender 

But to hurt you, would be a sin


The subtle content you show 

When you look at my smile 

Infuses the only will to live

Making all sorrow worthwhile 


To never show you my scars

Is a secret I cautiously hide 

So worry leaves your thought

Believing the grin perfectly wide


Everything that’s now left 

Is loneliness and none 

A tiny hope lives by because 

You are all and only I own


Your existence in my life 

Is a solemn wish unknown

As the purpose to survive 

Would be worthless alone
