Alive

Contributed by CuriousitysCat on Friday, 12th January 2007 @ 11:03:20 PM in AEST
Topic: hbadday



As it all falls away
I realize that in the end it's just down to me
"Though I know little of myself" I contemplate
Solemnly
Really I find little to say
As I scope my mind
It seems as though there's a lack of substance
And this is half new and part replay
Generally it looks complicated and twisted at first glance
But there's not much; it's slightly slanted
Mostly I just look broken
That's granted
And I cringe as this merciless light surrounds me
Weakly I attempt to crawl back into my world
Of darkness
Rejected; I walk on, eyes half closed, lids heavy;sleepy
I'm caught on something; I writh and jerk; restless
No one can hear these silent screams
They tear at my throat
I've yet to tell myself I'm stuck in my own harsh
Dreams...

~ThEnD

Riveting write. That ending is something else. I had to reread this piece a couple of times..it sort of sucked me into it. Good stuff.
Peace and hugs,
Laura

Ah the syrup of enhanced gravity in dreams a resistance we then can name when we are awake:

"...Really I find little to say
As I scope my mind
It seems as though there's a lack of substance..."

When inspired the muse fill the vacancy with textures of imagination...

I found myself remembering similar dreams.

Good Job

Peace

It's quite disheartening when your own darkness comes to represent security or at least the comfort of familiarity & then denys you its embrace...but, sometimes it's the swift kick in the pants we need towards a light we perhaps don't yet know we need to see...

Your agony is very apparent in this poem.
I really like how you use several different
well described images to illustrate your mental
state and life. Excellent write!
