I'm at a crossroads
Dirt in every direction
My feet hurt
I don't know how long I've been walking
I look at the sky
The screaming blue
The Sun intrudes
Harshly
It doesn't matter which road I choose
There is no destination
#poetry
Relentless
I'm coming for you
Run
Run away from everything you knew
Don't stop
To say goodbye
Don't rest
You're out of time
Don't eat
To stay alive
Don't sleep
Don't close your eyes
Because when you wake
I'll be at your side
There is no escape
You are mine
#poetry
I'm not going to make it
Every breath I take feels taken
I don't believe my eyes
My confidence is shaken
Crashing down from above
Collapsing from beneath
I don't know what I've done
Or what's happening to me
Perhaps I left something undone
Something I couldn't have seen
#poetry
I've been beaten, stabbed, shot, burned, poisoned, electrocuted, gassed, drowned, thrown from high above, suffocated, crushed, mauled, gored, frozen, rejected, abandoned, betrayed, erased, forgotten, replaced...
And I am heartbroken.
#poetry
Baby! Baby!
I don't know where you are
Can you hear me
Somewhere
Out there
Can you feel my beating heart?
I can't stand to be apart!
Please, please!
Let me see
The first glimpse of you
That, I've never seen...
#lyrical#poetry
You are ripe with age,
But not with delight.
You spit
On ordinary life.
You live fast,
And die trying.
You never grow old,
Without knowing, life.
#poetry
I'm in a state,
volatile,
with nowhere to escape.
This impending dread
is here to stay,
whispering peril
throughout the day.
I try to ignore it,
but it insists, persists
never once
showing its face.
#poetry
I cover my mouth
so they don't hear me breathe.
Careful where I plant my feet
in the faded dark
where I can barely see.
I'm trying to escape
to a place
far from me.
#poetry
In the dark
Where time doesn't exist
In the bitter cold
Where life is lifeless
No sound can reach
No sight remains
Only empty thoughts
Of what life became
#poetry
A melancholy song
That never ends
Stuck on a loop
Mocking your sadness
You can't leave the room
It plays in your head
No noise is loud enough
You know it by heart
There is no escape
Until you change your song
#poetry
The mouse before the golden-framed mirror
doesn't seem to be himself
He feels his ears are too big
his eyes not as inviting
his nose not as pronounced
He doesn't feel right in his own fur
And yet his clothes fit perfectly
his tail is fluffy
and he stands ready to face the world
