Living Body, Yet A Dead Soul

Living my life kills my spirit, terminates my soul.
What are left of me are shattered pieces that are like old crumbs swept under a rug, imperceptible to the eye, yet still there.
I'm screaming, "HELP ME!" inside, but to afraid to trust.
How do i let go?
How do rid myself of such an ailment that has become so unsuscrptible to my living body, yet dead soul?

i like this dead...

Hi...welcome.
well I am as a novice as you are to poetry, though I like to write something I feel like writing about your piece of writing...I FOUND IT LIKE MINE.
Dead is everyone's soul, your soul is dead... you know this, and it is good to have a dead soul.
A dead soul never means a dead heart, nor does it mean a dead spirit... you are alive (you will always be)... your soul is dead because it has to be, so as to keep you alive. And the day when your body dies... your soul will become alive... so you'll never die. . .

Take it like a day-night cycle, one comes and the other has to hide, though both are there yet one is visible, prominent at a time...
so as your soul ( it is taking rest, sleeping...a dead sleep ) but the day when it has to be awaken, it'll become alive...so let the things be happen on there own...
let it be...dead.
