Ennui.

Nothing prepares you for a night of complete loneliness. 4am comes around, all of that strength you possessed in the day unhinges itself in the midst of cold sheets and the silences that you dread.

You bare your soul to the four walls of your room, hoping and waiting for some form, any form really, of companionship..but even the walls fail you. Words fail you, Love fails you, everything around you feels as though its slowly closing in into your encased thoughts.

I have grown into forming a kind of bond unlike any other with the darkness that consumes me. It feels like home, at times like these. Other times it feels as though a pair of hands are gripping at my throat, slowly but surely regurgitating every thought out of me. It feels this way tonight.

I am indefinitely sad and I'm relishing in every bit of it because only then will I be able to cherish the sun a little bit more. How I'd long for days where the sun burns bright on my pale skin or how the rays echoes itself throughout my whole being. I've always liked the sun and its brashness of the knowing.

But tonight, the senses seem to seek comfort in the unknown, the mysteries of it.

I am utterly spent.

Walking Again

The tears are black. My wounds are red. I sit in a huddle, With a pounding head. My ragged breath, Shows I'm insecure. As I try to forget, And rid of the pressure. My vibrates - Friends asking why.

Hiding In The Deep

Hiding. In. The. Shadows deep. Barely on the ground. Living. In. My. Own world. No one else around. Taking. Over. In. And. Out I begin to zone. Want. You. All. Just please. Leave me alone. All. Alone.

"Sorry, didn't see her!"

For so long, I've been so low, Fighting hard to get my knees off the floor, Stinging tears, Creep down my face, I said that nothing can be done or can be changed, I lie awake, Until I'm numb, Because...

Falling Apart

The Man Who Lost It All

His shoulders, heavy. His hands, numb. His words, unspoken. His expression, glum. His life, lifeless. His visions, blurred. His thoughts, empty. His speech, slurred. His bottle, full.

Have You Ever Cried?

Have you ever cried without shedding a tear. A heart that feels too heavy - almost more than you can bear. Songs on the radio rip you all apart.
