Zero
Feelings of worthlessness
Rose colored lenses
Shattered by cruel words
Blinded by my sudden awareness
Vile creature, I see your true form
Twisted words spit from your forked tongue
The mask from whence you hide
Crumbles
I am broken
As you wish me to be
Always the zero
Never the ten
Lies covered in confectionery sugar
Melting away
A deluge of tears
I’m no longer a ghost
Paint me the villain
The colors burn my skin
Always the zero
Never the ten
