"Life for you has been less than kind/So take a number/Stand in line/We've all been sorry/We've all been hurt/But how we survive/Is what makes us who we are." -'Survive' by Rise Against

Keep your distance
From the poisonous air
That surrounds me;
I have been tainted
And no good will ever
Become of me;
My spirit has darken,
My heart is now black,
My soul became a void;
Am I even human anymore?
Empty of all emotions,
I have become numb;
So stay away from me,
Remain clean for as long as possible,
I am no longer pure.

I don't really know what compelled me to write this poem, but I hope someone can relate to these words.
