I’m choking on air…
Got suicidal thoughts…
Do I really dare?
Everything is frightening…
Scared to look ahead…
Future discomforting…
All is colourless all is dead…

My fading soul…
My shallow heart beat…
My shamed conscience….
With peace shall never meet…
Sleepless night’s familiar…
This emotional abuse…
I’m heading nowhere…
Flailing without a use…

My fake happiness…
Grimace and pretend…
Wrecking inside…
Different message I send…
Still hate tomorrow…
I long for yesterday…
Always cry over nothing…
Eager to run away…

Pain and hopelessness…
True love unmet…
My emptiness unfilled…
Sins I can’t forget…
Too much to ask for…
Not enough to give…
Shrouded by sadness…

Reluctant to live.

I always have a hard time commenting on these dark and anguished pieces of work. Not to say they aren't good but it is so different from how I see life. So when you see a little dove with no comment, please know I read it but couldn't find a suitable comment in my happy soul. Dove

This is an awesome write. As for dark work sometimes there is therapy in writing these things down and expressing true, live, rawl emotion. When life gets you down pick up your pen and fight back. You have done a great job of this.

WOW! So powerful and yes your fellow poets can relate. "My fake happiness...Grimace and pretend" Words that I can relate to for sure.

Very well done. Powerful and sad emotions, and yes...I think more of us can relate to your words than will admit. I have certainly felt this way before, and I think you've captured the anguish quite well. You drew the reader in with the first couple of lines, and from there everything flowed smoothly right down to the haunting end...Great job!

Scorp.

Rach..
Your sadness is like a raging river : (
and your choice of words, even more fierce-
I feel your pain..
It's beautiful sadness..
my heart bleeds for you, in that one day
you will truly become happy my friend-

with Love-
