Beaten Road

I drive in circles Not knowing what I seek All I catch is a glimpse Around the corner I peek This circle could last forever But I don’t think I can I am worn And my morale is torn I cannot last much longer There must be something But all I see is nothing Is this my destiny? To die alone and fearless... Sign in to see full entry.

The Roommate

I had the best roommate one could hope for Always softly did she shut the door What tragedy befalls me How could I not see? Now it is time to say goodbye It is all I can do to not cry I will see her again some other day What is it that I should say? What cruelty fate has in store for me It will...

Patience

A virtue not easily taught A discipline not easily embraced But it is what I have sought From deep down it is what I need My world has been turned upside down I know not what to even do with myself But one thing I know is discipline And with that I have learned patience It was through hard times And...

Heart

It beats deep within The pain is unbearable To what do I owe this? When will it end? Never When my hand stops shaking Never This is a new day And I will not pay For what I have not done. I will stay here For at least another year This is a new day for me Let’s see what I can be. No one will ever... Sign in to see full entry.

In the Dark

Inside Inside it feels like a train wreck Outside Outside it seems normal What to do Calm There’s a peace inside not yet known As trouble swirls all around What to do As I gaze to the stars The world opens its jaws for me I step inside the abyss As I get whisked away What to do My world is tiny My...

Pains

My head aches My heart aches My mind is tired My body is tired There is always something lacking And in its place is pain The pain never takes a break It invades my life The doors once open in my life are now closed Nothing is open in its place I am left with an empty room My life is a colorless box...

Grounded

As the feet hit the ground Nothing is felt There is no pound There is no feeling Nothing but air I glide down the street Not touching the ground As if I have no feet And there is no sound How do I stay here When my feet take me there? What do I do When the connection To this world is lost? As I... Sign in to see full entry.

Now

I wield no deadly weapon All I have are my words What good are they to me now When my world has fallen Into the realm of the unknown All I want is to be free But that cannot happen What I wish for cannot be What I long for does not exist Nothing has any meaning I see no purpose What is this being...

Memory

It is hard to deal When memories have been removed By an outside source What am I to do When I know not the path I travel? I am on the same path Yet I see it for the first time It is a lonely walk When I remember nothing Of what I have already done. What am I to do When I don’t know where to go?...

Calm Waters

There is a calm inside Not yet known There is a peace within Not yet found How do I know These things that I say That is simple I listen to myself Too long have I ignored Inside what I knew to be true Too long did I hide From the person within There is a warmth inside Like a wildfire it spreads...
