Numb

A life full of struggle, is best fought through words.

[mywritersescape]

I got the job!!!!!!!

[mywritersescape]

It’s interesting

Finding one’s self

Yet still feeling completely

Alone

This world may have its beauty

But I find the darkness

Has beauty in its mystery

[pelicandensity]

Enigma

this

begins

and

ends

with

a

word

to

break

the

spell

silence

removed

questions

answered

persistence

rewarded

[jmsapphire]

Fall as honey on

Lips so thorned that

Blood has become

Sweet on reddened scorn

That pain is pleasure

And pleasure is none

Absent, uninvited

Watered-down rum

None as strong.

- loving of the 'broken'

[mywritersescape]

Like the ocean waves

I crash

It’s natural and yet

I still drown

[mywritersescape]

I scream

And no one hears

[mywritersescape]

I just want to be okay

Any time I feel I make one step forward

I fall down another fucking hole

I’m starting to wonder if

It’s worth finding a way to climb out

[mywritersescape]

11:11

Fuck wishes they never come true

[mywritersescape]

One day

Maybe

I will have the happy

Picture perfect

Family

With the children running around

And my partner smiling

With the sun drenching us all

In a perfect framed memory

Though that is a long was away

From ever being real

[mywritersescape]

I hope one day

I stop writing

Because then

On that day

My worries

My thoughts

My breath

Will be no more

[mywritersescape]

What will I need to find

When will I be happy

Who will I have become if I find nothing

How long must I wait

Why must I crave something that will never come

Where do I need to go to find myself

[mywritersescape]

I divulge in many forms or media

And yet I can’t find the escape

so many claim to have found

[mywritersescape]

Pain

Physical or not

Is devastating

[mywritersescape]

Can’t I just be happy

[mywritersescape]

Where did life take us

Where did our souls go

Where did we end up

[mywritersescape]

Who am I

While I sit and dream of many lives

Who am I

Though I never get to

Who am I

To think that I could ever get out

[mywritersescape]

What will it take

To be what you want

What will it take

To finally feel free

What will it take for my thoughts to even matter
