I will never be

I’m useless, disdainful and they say a waste of space
Just you wait before I come and break your pretty face
I’m a liar, I’m a user, I’m a whore upon the night
Tell the shadows of the darkness that I’m nothing more than light

I’m a pixie, I’m an elfin, I’m a shade of pale grey
I’m the whisper on the morning as the night breaks into day
I’m a player, I’m a singer, I’m an actor simply at heart
Learn a line and repeat it to just overplay my part

I’m the crying of a baby and the scream of a heart that broken
I’m the only one that dares to talk when a word may not be spoken
I am a mumble, I am a murmur, of my past and present self
I’m a mask that smiles and does not bleed when placed upon a shelf

I’m the pride and I’m the joy and I’m your dismay and downfall too
I’m fake and I am hurtful and I rarely say what’s true
I am a diamond that is silver and a plastic ring that’s gold
I am the warmth when it is freezing and the fire when it’s cold

I am a piece of flesh that you can mould into your dream
I am that softly falling tear and that silent killing scream
I’m that actress that smiles so nicely and has the most beautiful type of cry
I’m everything and nothing. But I will never be goodbye.
