These days, they lose their potency
As love is lost to misery
And history has taught me
To just stop fighting it all

For letting go, it often seems
Is best to grow, to keep moving
Rather hiding in the lonely
Than to risk damage in the fall

And I ask for you to only
No chastise, but just let me be
And then maybe I'll find some peace
Inside my loneliness

But I most likely won't...

I am dead.

My legs are broken
And my mind has betrayed me.

I
Cant
Move.

I hear the screaming.
Loud
Horrible
Torment.

I try to make it stop
But still

I
Cant
Move.

I rip my eyes open,
The air is acid.
Time is rushing through
My disoriented state
Wasting,
Wasting away like
I am.

My lead arm strains
And my lips groan
As I reach
Reach
To stop the torment.

Quiet.

The stomach rises and falls.
The fingers move,
The shoulders roll.

My left knee bends as it
Battles over the precipice.
The right grudgingly follows

My dead body spasms
I scream,
I expand,
I unfold,
I get out of bed.

And I’m afraid I’ll lose it all doing what’s best for me.
Then I’ll be back crawling on my knees.
Because I’m too weak and unable to please.
And I’m afraid I’ll stay lost,
That I’ll never be found,
I’ll spend another night lying lower than the ground.
And I’m afraid love won’t come,
Even If it does I’ll risk it all and run.
And I’m afraid of doing it right,
And I’m afraid of doing it wrong.
And I’m afraid I’ll never ever be where I belong.

My chest felt like bursting
My ribs felt as if broken
All sight didnt seems clinging
All sound couldnt be eaten.

What is happening? What is this feeling?
My lips were zipped tightly.

I could hear my heart murmured
I could see my veins running
And the drumming became louder
Like the march of the army.

Didnt I do well? Should I ring the bell?
I've no slightest idea.

My eyes been jumping now and then
As the walls kept beating me up
I shook my head like a titan
With my lungs screamed out to the yard.

I've had this enough I say
Stop getting into my way.

No more pretends to be fine.. You'll see..
I'll put the end to the line.. Let it be..
