Glass Walls

selfstruggles

I'm climbing glass walls,
Searching for hand holds,
I know I won't find.
While my reflection watches impassively,
...Then laughs as I fall.
I slip and slide,
But still I try,
To reach the other side.
I'm scratching through the pane,
Ignoring all the pain,
From my fingers, bloody and raw.
I'm watching as the rain,
Writes my story on the glass,
In spider-like calligraphy.
It forms in pools at my feet,
... And I watch myself drown.
I try to break out from the dream,
The glass has shattered,
Inside of me,
Yet still I cannot escape.
Will someone teach me,
How to get past,
[These walls that my heart makes...]

Hun~
I adore this!! Truly. It pierces me in a way I can't explain. I feel
it deeply, hun.
Love the spider calligraphy reference.
That last line is so utterly relatable and wistful ...
*falls in love with piece*

I like it. There's a few lines that blow me away, that I wish I'd written. Envy...
Anyway, take care, my friend. And smile!.

This is an absolutely brilliant write. The emotion, the imagery, and way it is written. I love the imagery of your reflection laughing and your "out of body" perspective as you watch yourself. You are definitely brilliant.
Thank you very much for sharing your emotion and your wonderful talent.

Very relatable...to many of us as well as myself.
It's amazing how often we feel trapped only to crumble and then struggle to put ourselves back together again.
Well felt my dear freind. |

Simple and imaginative. I think the whole thing is very good, if you want any negative comments maybe a bit more flow in last three lines, but nothing more than that. It is definately a 5/5 for sure, loved it. |
