Motionless

The burdens I bear, I call by name
Embellished in loss
Clothed in shame:
Lust
Addiction
Anger
Despair
Eyes wide open to the future
But with an empty stare.
The life I lead reaps self perpetuating pain
I've strayed so far from whence I came
A slave I am and shall remain.

  1. When I was 20 I wrote this:
    Dismal morning, head in hands
    Glaring at the empty cans.
    Wide-eyed sickness, nothing calms.
    Feeling tired, sweaty palms.
    Downward spiral, nothing's cured.
    Fun is such an empty word.
    Peace is needed, sleep is rare.
    Baggy eyes, tangled hair.

    I'm sorry for how you feel. I haven't seen you on Facebook and was hoping you were alright.
