PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Searching for a switch,
To bring me back into light
or blind me from the dark.
Something to turn off this
Self Destruct that I'm hooked on.
Every time I escape,
I find somewhere else to be chained.
Everything's a blur,
everyone is just a face, another lie.
Place to place, nothingness to nothingness.
It's hard to find a point
for anything.

You don't remember my name,
I don't really care.
I just want to get lost,
Forever.
Everything inside me is screaming,
trying to run away
But rough hands pull me deeper
Down into a current I can't fight
It's agony, down here, I close my eyes
I think the suffering is what you must go through,
In order to find that place of peace.
Peace, away from the brightness of day.
Peace. Far from these voices screaming, clawing.
But someone pulls me up, just a little,
before I get lost completely.
But they think I'm safe now,
like I could be free.
But there's still no air, I'm choking on my denial.
It's creeping up again, the truth, and
I'm killing myself with it slowly.

I'm so alone.
I'm so...happy.
And I'm dying, piece by piece.
Killing everything I love,
Everything I hate.
