I'm stuck.
I'm stuck in the past.
No, not 5 months ago nor 5 years ago,
But 5 hours ago.

Every sip I take
Every bad choice I make
Nothing makes me forget
That every single time
..
I break
Justin Nov 2018
Obviously, I'm holding up okay.
I'm holding my head up high.
But there's a twist to that.
I'm holding it up, with a noose.

Like always, I'm still on the edge.
Started to hold my self.
With smoke and nicotine.
So I wouldn't fall over again.
I'm writing this with a migraine.

the space between excitation and inhibition
there I am
on the cusp of completely letting go
breaching the unknown
Mind
      RACING

Heart
       PACING

Muscles
          ACHING
 
Limbs
         SHAKING

Soul
       FADING

Smiles
         FAKING

I'm
     BREAKING...
                    I'm
                        BREAKING...

If I dare to stay
Will it be the same?
A silhouette on the way out,
or the way in,
The same old game?

Knives scratch me from within
Whenever you make promises
Knowing you seldom keep them
I am reminded of all my losses.

They were quite eye-opening,
I admit.
Became disillusioned,
Only took a blink.

Like the desert starting to dampen
And the crows singing.
It's never supposed to happen
But honey, even we were breaking.

This still doesn't make sense
Many things left unsaid.
But I should stay quiet
Try to find what they are instead.

Like a fog suddenly lifted,
Clarity to me is gifted.
And Taking a leap of faith I say
Let's forget the days that were gray.

But something good comes out of them,
Now and then.
And things will never be the same again.
