Poetry / Untitled
I’m not crying, these aren’t tears falling.
There’s no water on my face,
No outward sign of what happens inside.
Struggling to hold my place.
Too strong to show what I know I’m feeling.
Don’t ask if I’m alright,
What you see is only the façade, inside
Burns the internal fight.
It’s me versus myself, it’s all against one.
I’d never tell you though,
My fall comes swiftly, shortly, and fast.
I’m afraid of letting go.
What demons have I, grasping tight to my soul.
Please, I need your help…
I’m trying to say it, what I mean is that
I’m afraid of me, myself.
Hollow blackness takes over, I’m lost within.
No light to guide me out,
There’s nothing here, no one, no thing.
Alone with naught but doubts.
The Fear, the Anger, not letting me go,
Cackling in delight.
Depression and Misery gladly cling on,
Eyes widen at such a sight.
My hearts given in, souls drowned by itself.
Hope has fluttered away,
I close my eyes, ceasing all movements,
I’ve decided it’s best to stay.
From above a light, eyes squint in shock.
What’s going on in here?
Sad orbs creak open and I smile at it all,
For I have faced my fear.
The darkness evaporates, wisps of smoke in the air.
Only light do I now see,
For all of my fears, inhibitions, and hates are gone,
leaving nothing but me.
