Words aren’t enough
to let sorrow escape
so I hope that tears
will ease the pain.
To let it go out
and empty me out
in the deafening silence
only my heavy breath breaks.
The ache is intense
sharp and deep
and leaves behind
a bleeding heart.
Alone and affraid,
I’m lost in my thoughts.
My mind is a cacophony
of feelings and fears.
Each day, drowning
deeper and deeper
in my own wide
and endless darkness.
I try but fail
to reach the surface.
Need for air so intense
I still die a little more.
The bleeding doesn’t stop
and fills my emptiness.
Infusion of my soul
with darkened thoughts.
I kiss my demons
and dance with them.
I grab their hands
and let them guide me.
I follow my shadow,
making my path
to the darkened world
on the other side.
My demons are
who I am now.
They infuse my mind,
my heart and my soul.
The screams inside me
and the voices intermingled
A madness growing
silently within me.
I was entirety once,
I am now pieces.
I crave for unity,
I long for understanding.
The pain still bleeds,
Empty, I was.
Yet my fears and my pain
now fill me within.
The dance is endless,
my demons are my partners,
and they make me feel
at home and secure.
Who am I now ?
Only a shadow
unable to feel
not even pain.
I try to get up
no strength remains.
Hope vanished long time ago
I became my own fear.
