Things aren't as pretty on the inside

by ArsMorendi

A poem I wrote based on what happened to Yoh in the tunnel of Tatarus.

Yoh's POV, from when he was walking through 'The tunnel of Tartarus' (sorry, I can't remember the original name)

Things aren't as pretty on the inside

Empty. Wither I sit or stand,

I don't know,

I don't know why I'm like this,

Nothing is wrong,

But it is,

Silence in a room of paradise,

Hanging from a nail,

Nail in my mind,

You stay there unhealed,

Like an old wound,

Take it away,

I want to cry,

I want to die,

Ever afraid of not going to sleep?

Ever afraid of not being awake?

What the fuck is wrong with you?

You're not like the rest of them,

Things aren't as pretty on the inside,

Dry love stoned hurt,

Pain withered in my mouth,

Heart in my eyes, I won't cry,

Hatred breeding in the mind,

I love, I hate, I hope to die.

An/inspired by a one line off 'Only' by Nine Inch Nails.
