I have lots of things to do today...Since I actually feel like doing things again! So, I thought I'd REALLY put myself out there and share some poetry I wrote in some of my...darker...moments. For those of you who REALLY know me, yes, I write poetry again. No, I'm not promising it's good, but it's real. :P
Darkness
In the dark of my room
I let in the gloom.
Finally, free to let go.
Tired, exhausted,
Of feeling things
I shouldn't.
I let the all-consuming sadness,
The loneliness,
Wash over me.
Nagging thoughts ruminating,
Gnawing,
Like termites in the back of my mind.
A few tears escape,
All I can muster
From the dredges.
Dead inside
And too emotional
All at the same time.
I close my eyes.
The sweet reprieve of sleep
Finally finds me.
Medication
Oh, medication...
Make me stop caring
About stupid, trivial things.
Oh, medication...
Numb the painful feelings
Into oblivion.
Oh, medication...
Help me quit chasing
The unattainable.
Oh, medication...
Help me react normally,
Think normally.
Oh, medication...
Quiet the racing thoughts
That never end.
Oh, medication...
Dull the lonely ache
In my heart.
Oh, medication...
Just help me feel
Normal again.
