Reflection in the Mirror: What is felt?

Suddenly it feels words aren't enough

I'm slowly bringing an end to myself

Trapped in this corner full of darkness and grief

Watching the collapse of all I believe

I can feel my life slipping away

With nobody around that wants me to stay

I've secluded myself for my entire life

Just to deny a feeling deep inside

So I calmly slip into the abyss

I'm sure my absence will not be missed

But I'll still be here in physical form

Though the person I was is shredded and torn

I've tried to keep what I am alive

But all I ever seem to do is "try"

I've amounted to everything people expect of me

And yet it's not enough to simply be

I've said it before, words aren't enough

They're shallow, empty, and void of love

I shout, scream and beg them to see

I want them to know, what they see isn't me

How much I've tried, how much I've cared

They've all just turned away and left me here.

This has to be the most emotionally charged one yet, it took some deep digging. I tried the form of AABBCC. I think it turned out pretty well. Review, please.
