My story
How I feel
No one knows
What goes on inside
What goes on in the deep…

Scream
I want to scream
I can feel it
Gurgling up from the pit of my stomach
That heart wrenching
Blood curdling
Goosebumps all over
Scream

Trapped
Inside this dark hole that keeps getting deeper
Tired of always crawling my way out
Hands bleeding
Knuckles bruised
Always fighting
Caged like an animal
About to die and not wanting to accept the fate

Shattering
Like glass in a broken mirror
All to pieces
A part of me in each one
Ripped apart like a savage feasting
Gnawing on every one of human fiber I have left

Lost
No more path to guide me
No more words to comfort me
Rolling down a steep hill
Hitting every bump on the way
With no way to stop
No way to get back to the top

Sacrifice
Gave up what I left behind
Those I love
Those I miss
Resentment fills me
Regret attacks me
Guilt eats my heart out
Shredding any resemblance of who I was

Change
People change all the time
I have changed
For better or for worse
Not entirely sure
I am more than one person
Split and dispersed
Parted like the Red Sea
But with no Biblical obligation
No faith
No hope
No white light at the end of the tunnel

Falling
Again
And again
And again
Always catching myself
The pattern never ends
Like a bad dream from which you never wake

Stuck
Paralyzed inside
No moving forward
No way to go back
This quicksand has taken hold
I feel myself sinking
No rope to pull me out
No voice to bring me forth

Blind
Seeing nothing
Eyes into a soul that no longer exists
Buried so deep
Chained and locked away
Blank stare is all you see
Brown eyes
No more shine
Filling with the haze that covers in death

Out
I want out
I can see myself
Standing there
Watching
Waiting
Doing nothing
Welcoming the release
The relief of no more burdens
No more weight on the shoulders
Winning so many battles
Yet still losing this war
So tired of competing
Vying for the affection
Stability at a loss
No more time
No more effort

Done
Finished
At my finale
Grand finale
Red carpet stained with blood
Sweat
Tears
Nothing left to give
No want to receive
Just done…
