Down the Rabbit Hole

By A poet of madness

My ground is cracking
I don't want to tumble
I can't afford to
But my arm itches
With the insane urge to run black
Back to red
I see invisible
Sinister
Smiles
And broken promises
Of it won't hurts
And just this onces
That I'll never be able to forget
Or completely remember
I'll never wash clean
No matter how hard i scrub
And it sucks
It hurts
I just want it to be over
But the nightmares play over
And over
I know sometimes i scream
But my throat is so dry
No sound comes out
So thankfully i don't wake anyone
I wake up terrified
And can't remember why
I thank whatever for not remembering
I can't break like this again
I just can't

    The way you wrote this leaves no doubt that you are hurting. Sometimes writing about it helps. Sometimes. Allow yourself to ask for help. Lazarus Ominous

    This is a great write... It's not dancing around the feeling with big words or obscure imagery... It's raw and to the point. Magnificent
