Flash

By Morgoth

Did you ever think you were crazy?
Did you ever not tell people things for fear of retribution?
Have you ever lived a lie?

You see things, flashes in the corner of your eye.
You tell, they bring the hammer down.
Your life is hell, your soul is gone, your falling forever.
You pick up the pieces, take your life up again but then...
You have to live a lie, never tell, never share.
You are never close to anyone, surrounded by your flashes.

Your flashes of darkness.

I sometimes see flashes, kinda like a blur in my peripheral all the time...

    Reading this shifted me into my deepest of thoughts, the tucked away ones that you speak, (rather), write of. Goosebumps form from my neck to the tip of my spine. Beautiful, unraveling, disastrous thoughts, playing in my mind. Scholar

    Truer words have never been spoken.......what we see, hear, and feel can be expressed here with no judgement. Keep writing.

    Hopefully here on DP as you write and express the many things that you have thus far, it will bring you closer to someone or friends. A home away from home if you will, thank you for sharing =)

    This feels all too familiar. You struck every note in my heart. This feel so close to home. In a word. . .extraordinary!
