Poetry & Self-Awareness

Running…

Running from the shadows 

Running from the shadows before they completely consume me

---

Crying…

Crying like I’ve never cried before

Crying heavy because I feel the pain in my core

---

Escaping…

Escaping from the nightmare I’ve created

I created a world with everything I’ve hated 

---

Shouting…

Shouting because no one hears me crying

Shouting because I feel like in my tears I am almost drowning

---

Drowning…

Drowning in my own sorrow

Hoping for a better tomorrow

---

Hoping…

Hoping I soon start coping 

So much pain I go numb and start floating 

---

Trying…

Trying so hard

Fighting so hard

Almost… almost dying…

---
