Headed to the gutter faster then the water flowing to the fishes. Wishes higher thoughts gliding with an eagle. Feeling separated from souls of the justice ones.
#FreeVerse Worry Always on the edge of my mind Like a knife That Just. Won't. Leave. Like an edge that I can't drink away Can't drown Can't burn Can't cut Can't cure.
Do you feel like nothing is going your way. Like no one is making the effort, To try and make your day. I know how you feel. Do you feel like nobody will care.
Feeling this pain I collapse into bed Not in my body In my heart and my head All I see is darkness Quickly closing in I can't escape it's evil grasp I fight but never win The feeling overwhelms...
#opussweeklychallenge. #nightdwellers. #freeverse. The darkness. Leads me to light. Down so deep. A place not known. Hidden from all. Intense and profound. I had closed my eyes. To beautiful things.
Fed up of holding punches, Fed up of biting tongues. It's time I followed hunches, I'm really not that dumb. I'd keep it to myself, Keep anger at bay. Stack fears on the shelf, But fuck it, NOT...
#beginningline #nightdwellers. From behind the cloud and. Out of sights, dims a moonlight. Emitting shimmery glow. Upon the droplet dews. That lays upon grasses. The song of crickets are playing.
Sometimes I feel broken, I feel beaten up, I'm down. Everything I say is wrong, It's dark, it's grey, I'll frown. Foot in my mouth, Face in the mud, I'll cry. I'll cry. You'll smile.
Most of the time. I am never happy. You can't see this in me. I smile a lot. When im not even happy. I smile because im crazy. I smile because im insane. I smile because im in pain.

I hate you. I hate you.
I can see through the disguise,. A smile that doesn't reach the eyes,. Eyes hurt and betrayed by complex lies,. Eyes of sorrow full of unspent cries,. The disguise so strong no one would see,.
#Bestofopuss. Look at me sitting in a crowd. You would never believe that it is a lie. I'm not really here, these people don't know. The real me, the girl lost inside.
Best friend: But you're not happy.. Me: I'm never happy. I have terrible depression. When I'm not depressed, I'm angry. I also have terrible anger issues.
#bestofopuss. I am haunted by the ghosts. Of your promises that withered and died. These are the ghouls that scare me most. I can't escape them and I can't hide.
You say, That he's Slowly drifting away, But really, I am; You see, He disappears Fading away, But really, I am; You sense, That he's Withdrawn, But really, I am; You say You sense He's...
Swamped, suffocating, Pressure to smile. Yet the plastered grin mask goes unrecognised. Angered screams of help muffled by blankets of stronger louder voices, Defacing my screams into white noice.
A revision of my earlier post "Recently". Man I really needed to try harder. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Some dark things I see Remind me I'm not alone. We all run for cover and hide From the demons in our home.
I wrote this bit while ago, yes during my current relationship.
It's so hard to appreciate everyone. It's so hard to stay happy at times like this. Every time I get upset, I go back to that one main thing that makes me even sadder.
Words are harder to use, because you don't want to offend anyone or make a fool of yourself,. You just keep analysing everything you've said in your head to see where you went wrong,.
Everyday I look at the mirror. Never satisfied by the sight. Life looks so sour. Every single night. I'm never comfortable. Not in my skin. Not in my role. Even with my kin. Everyday I wonder.
#opussweeklychallenge Asking Alexandria- a lesson never learned. Please you have to help me this is not my true face.
It's been harder to smile I haven't smiled 'just because' in awhile I don't know how many more miles I'll have to hike before I become less vile- Less hostile Is the trek even worthwhile.
