Emotionless thing
Worthless being
What’s the point
When all you do is live
Your life like a puppet

You go about
Acting on cue
Acting like people expect you

Where being a “best friend”
Is only a title
You only act the part

Being the “good daughter”
Only just a title
You only act the part

Being the “best big sister”
Only just a title
You only act the part

Where your emotions
Are frozen and no longer function
You don’t actually care
About someone

The feelings that went numb
Where you just don’t feel
You just do

You’re only an extra person
If you were to die
No one will notice

Everyone’s life
The world
Will go about
As if you never
Existed

It’s not worth
Still being here
When you don’t make
A mark on someone’s life

Your existence?
Why nobody cares
No one will miss you

You were nothing
But a ghost to everyone

Emotionless thing
Worthless being
Wipe those fake tears away
You are just a detached soul


You can’t show compassion
You can’t show remorse
Can’t feel love
Can’t even feel happiness

Emotionless thing
Worthless being

You’re just a nobody.

I've been feeling down lately. And this is pretty much how I've been feeling.
