mood: alone

By cre

music in the background

dreams run down my face

dying and I'm breaking

this is not the place

not the place I thought it was

now I sigh alone

in the arms of no one

and I don't know

I just don't know

there should be more

but the dark will overwhelm me

and I will slide to the floor

and cradle my own head

in the arms of no one

in tears alone

and I don't know

I just don't know anymore

    The utter loneliness and awkward lost feeling that accompanies it, gleamed through like a dull heart beat in a mass grave. I could have fallen right into this and off my chair. ~DW~

    You successfully captured the feeling of hopelessness we all feel at times...when the reality sets in that, despite the facade, we are truely alone. Ciao, T/S Scholar

    Wow, jane, just wow. It left me with a feeling of helplessness knowing that one of my good friends is in this situation. I hope it gets better.

    rocking and tragic and it's like I felt the racking sobs you didn't even disclose with words. Tired, and I just don't know anymore.
