Heavy ink.
A sinking mind,
All hopes gone in a blink.
Everything's dark
Jasper Sep 24
The morning
Sinks its bite
Into a lifeless stuffed toy,
Yanking it across the room
For its owner to throw
Me again.
Break the cycle
Lance Remir Sep 24
You left without telling me

When am I supposed to

Stop thinking about you

End
Struggling to breathe,
like a fish out of water.
This is the end.
Arpitha Sep 24
I want to scream my head off,
crush my heart out,
destroy this anxiety—
the way it’s destroying me.
Arpitha Sep 24
How can I see
the light at the end of the tunnel
when I’m buried inside?
Arpitha Sep 24
Turmoil
inside me
threatens
to tear
me apart.

I am
giving in.
Arpitha Sep 24
Don't you miss
the happy, carefree days?
How can I miss
what I have never had?

Darkness has engulfed me
since childhood,
holding me captive.

It fortifies its armory
day by day,
leaving me incapacitated.
Arpitha Sep 24
What if I lie down
and refuse to get up?
Ever?
It's all I want to do,
It's all I can do.
Take rest -
forever.
