Hidden. Again.
the past still grips my life
as the needles tick
i grow weak.
how will i ever come to be
i feel empty.
haven't i already rid the past
from my hands?
haven't i straightened the path for me to thread?
i must have taken a detour.
to a land i am most unfamiliar with
or am i all so familiar with everything
that it over floods my mind?
is this my home?
is this where i once grew up?
am i really alive?
or am i just too dead to realize?
how deep i have thrown myself down
that darkness is now all i see.
my life.
my everything.
i know i'm home.
but where has everyone or everything gone?
i feel everything.
but i don't believe now as i just can't see.
i can't see what's real and what's fake.
is this really what i think it is?
are what i feel really what it feels to be?
or are they just part of my parallel being
making the false seem all so real.
i'll never know.
darkness is killing me.
