25/M I fell in love with poetry when my mind began to turn on me.
i can see light beyond the clouds the waves have ceased their swells and so I can now see and breathe all the same.

Limpid
Sundering into nihility Undecided if I should   I think it's for the best    Can't go on     I think it's for the best      Don't give up       Eventually, it will get better.

State of Nihility
I'm adrift in a digital sea. The waves take me as they see fit and I can't but think if this is it Pewag acts as a weighed cape so tightly wrapped it bruises my nape Useless movements lead to the bottom The doubts flood my mind as they flood my boat Stuck in my ways Will I be stuck here forever? God, I have been so naive "One last time"? I'm such a liar The digital sea has swallowed me whole No horizon No hills Nothing to enliven Just chills Has aspiration been abandoned? I've made my my peace The web of lies threading across my mind Stop asking, I'm not fine Blood soaked tears cover my face I screamed into the abyss and the abyss screamed back. "Be Still and Know"

Digital Sea
my mind has turned against me images of being tortured bounce like a red hot molecule inside my skull "you deserve this" "you're worthless" they scream in my ear its like a non stop 747 flying by my head but today was different i grabbed the thoughts by the throat and pressed them against the wall with my eyes burning with righteous anger i throw them to the ground i press my boot against its throat and press with all my wieght they begin to choak gasping for air they utter a single phrase "please have mercy on me" you didn't have mercy on me you didn't give me an ounce of joy you didn't allow me to get out of bed so no i will not have mercy on you i will end your miserable existence in the trunk and down the street i throw you in a ditch shovel to the head (1) i bury you far away from me i'm not stupid though i know you'll come back but this time i'm prepared if you come on my doorstep again i will not be held accountable for my actions

The Fight
A Shepherd and his 100 sheep walk among the hills of Judea. It is a warm pleasant day not too hot not too cold It is the perfect day for grazing. Ninety-nine of the Shepherds sheep have stuck together But one has left to do his own thing. He jumps and runs away from the herd Hiding from the Shepherd The Shepherd leaves the runs after the sheep searching high and searching low but then no more than twenty yards away he see it He bolts towards him screaming cheering crying He was filled with such excitement that it echoes through the hills. He looks his sheep in the eyes so happy that he found him. With his eyes swelling up with tears He gently picks up his sheep puts him over his shoulder an carries him back to the ninety-nine.

Resting
Armed to the brim with bullets and bombs Delta A moves into the control room slaughtering security ruthlessly leaving a wake of dead cells they move in and press play every single mistake replayed like a drive in inside my eye lids I fight back the tears Delta B breaks in the front they riddle it with lead abandoning it of any hope of releasing any joy It's destroyed They've taken over I could ***** but I won't I don't want to give them the satisfaction The enemy won the battle but reinforcements are coming in the form of light There's a war inside my head (1) And I won't give up until I win.

Scream
Your taste hits my lips and I cannot help but smile I feel such joy and love when your in my life Your embrace reaches down to the pit of my stomach and you warm my body intensely Your sight alone brings anyone to their knees buckling trembling By God! I cannot live without you! Every second! Every moment! I would live off of your breath I could But since I can't I'll stick with your taste Your sweet, intoxicating taste

Intoxication
Many nights I see you lay awake, tormented by the mistakes of your past. I see your thoughts replaying it in your mind like a bad rerun you can't turn off I can't take it anymore... I can't take watching you inject that pain into your mind over         and                over                        again... Don't you know there is rest for you on The Skull? There is rest for every broken                                                     saddened                                                                      weary soul. All you have to do is move it to my side. I can take it. I paid for it. It is done. Now sleep, child. Take rest I'll keep watch. Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light"
