Words spill out from me.
A vocabulary lost, devoid of all meaning,
The endless monologue will never explain;
Revelations into the soul are pointless.
Negative images wrap around my mind,
Showing the battles I can never win.
Repulsion stirs in me,
But I cannot say why.
This language holds no secrets.
Mythical love are just words.
No truth will come of this.
Alone with my thoughts,
I lie tortured at night;
Wishing for some insight into my soul.
But I am just left in my shallow shell,
Mocking my heroic deeds,
I see them for what they really are.
No great myths can be said of me.
I am open.
A blank page.
For all my words have turned to dust.
The life drained from them,
And in turn, me.

Free Falling.
I try to fly, But how I fall. I try to run, Instead I crawl. I try to scream, Instead I breathe. I try be calm, But I just seethe. I try to smile, But tears precede. I try to follow, Instead I lead.

This isn't what I asked for, Did I really put my name down for this. To live this endless war, To never feel the kindness of bliss.

Must we haste And waste the day. Must we worry About what others think. Must we overthink Every little detail. Must we pretend And lie till the end. Must we fight And blur our sight.

The Fallen
You don't wanna know what I've been through. You don't wanna know what this heart has taken. I'm a lone wolf in a world of sheep. I'm a stranger wallowing in the deep. A mind of endless questioning.

What Do You See?
The bitter lies prevent our eyes from reading between the sordid lines. Failing at sight. Falling each time. Our eyes cry tears that painfully tear from the sides. I'm the chosen subject.

Turmoil Of The Mind
The music blares, to drown out the thought, That all of my struggles, they were for nought. I can't believe that I fell for the trick they call life. All it has brought me is countless strife.

UNtitled
I whisper gently into an eternal dream. Come to me. Chasing shadows in a dark room. Illusive voices calling me. Come to me. I lay my plans on a floor of glass. Transparent yet it only reflects myself.

@ydistral I do. Sometimes there are no words to express the emotions I feel, no words to describe the pictures in my head.
Love it hun ! I can certainly relate, and I do think that words can help, sometimes they just need to be filtered by someone to make us see things we cant xx
Yeah...great one!! And as you know I am hollow inside too, but this emptiness is gift from eternity...it is little part of it
