Thoughts Petrifying

by deanna

My hand and gripped hair The threats? "I CAN rip you out, I just CHOOSE not to." Is is fear, despair, madness, loathe? The answer is empty of meaning. What is known would be ignored, as all said seems true, but fake. Boundlessly vain. silly, worthless; doubtful. What am I looking for in this effort? I know. I see. I hear. I believe. One thought twigs into another. I even wonder if the ocean can breathe. Breathe life into me. Aliens don't exist, but nightmares and demons do? A problem, unwanted. A result, unwanted. An answer, only a lie, .... unwanted, unwanted, oh so unwanted. I scream inside, and every inner glass is shattered. I yell, "Notice of Insanity Uprising!" They yell back, "That's Life." Upon those words I numb my mind, I release my grip. I let go of everything. MY face: gone MY body: gone MY hope: gone gone gone Anything and everything that was me leaves, and my body becomes a cadaver. Drifting side to side, in and out. It's more calm now though. My mind is no longer driving me crazy. For we have reached our destination.
