selfstruggles

[sometimes] I’m so outside myself, I can barely feel
my feet on the ground. Detachment- the voices in my head
are the only sound.
and on others I feel so heavily placed in my bones
that I couldn’t even turn over to
strangle myself.
sometimes the icy chill of the pillow is the only
thing that reminds me I am alive
they end up taking over for you. voices that can
speak the words better and you’re just curiously awaiting the words they say.
sometimes I’m so outside myself, I watch myself
as I sleep. And they try to convince me, its better this way
or so it would seem
until my head feels so heavy, it can barely dream
like an illness that is spreading displacement from
the base of my spine and the desperation that comes with knowing
this emptiness comes from deep within
like a missing piece, that makes you want to rip through your
arteries, misplace every fibre, tear up every tissue
until you find that empty bit
so you can fill it in

Wow, dangerously honest but a good write. My struggles are on the opposite spectrum, depression and PTSD. |
