My life essence
Trapped inside of my soul
Surrounded by distant lands
Filled with emptiness and loneliness
My trapped soul wanders
Looking for a purpose
Inside of a desolate stricken world

Tick Tock, Tick Tock
John D Feb 2018
Tick Tock
The clock inside me,
runs me ever so tightly
I hear the wheels in my mind
tossing and turning
I want these empty feelings to stop
but I know fate is inevitable

Tick Tock
The days of my life,
are set in a timer
The living air I breath
are soon to cease
The thoughts I feel
will soon lose meaning
A poem that I’ve written years ago, hopefully it is still well today (:

Haze
John D Feb 2018
Foggy bright nights
Languid brisk and breeze
Immense clubs
Music-filled
Dance-filled
Drug-filled
To the brim
Pulsating lights
Loud music
Tirelessly dancing
All
Drugs for my brain
Leaving me in
an endless haze

Soul-Searching
John D Feb 2018
the sun shining bright
strings of light
I go out in the warm sunshine
running in flight
living in bliss
giddy and glittery
cheerily down the lane
without a care in the world
don’t put me for blame
for living in happiness
instead
go out in the vast wilderness
and find your life

Blankness
John D Jan 2018
Head in a Spiral

Memories slowly fading
Reigning in fallacy
Dodging of reality
Silent in the night
Silent in the mind
Voices singing in my head
Leaving me lost and dead
Lingering for emotion and compassion
Losing my mind in utter blankness
Call to me and Tell me to
Bring me back to the good ol’ times

— The End —
