Trapped

Contributed by diamond_tears on Tuesday, 27th April 2004 @ 05:43:46 PM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles



I feel trapped by my life.
You cant escape yourself.

Everytime I sit alone, I feel swamped by loneliness.
Like a black cloud hanging over me,
Waiting, waiting, until Im on my own.

Then it suffocates me,
Enclosing its sticky walls around me,
Until I cannot breathe or fight it.
I have to collapse, give in to it.

My enemy and yet my only friend.
When there is no-one there for me,
The sticky walls can be comforting.

You cant escape yourself.

Awwww this was so sad. Lonliness is so hard sometimes. You expressed it so wonderfully in your poem.

Loneliness has been a friend and an enemy to me too... I can relate to the emotions felt here... I've felt them at one time or another in my life as well...
Very well expressed... I'm very impressed...
keep on writing...

I'm sorry that loneliness is such a big part of your life, I hope that you can find someone special to share your life with. Even though its a a horrible thing to feel you expressed it brilliantly here. Keep it up.

you're right. you can't escape yourself. that's why you have to rise above yourself and believe that you will see another day. i personally understand the grief and despair you are going through. i myself have been in that black cloud for three years running. i made up an agreement to life and signed my name three times. i really have only me. that's how i feel. please keep in touch. i will tell you more about myself. try and make you feel safe talking. promise. keep trying. never be afraid to tell how you feel. negative or postive. but believe you can overcome.

it amazing to find someone else that seems to unerstand how lonliness is suffocating, yet it can be so addicative when the only person you want can't come, can't ease you. then all you are left with is the lonliness which is always there. sleep is the most lonely time of all.
