This Forsaken Room

I’m tired of this beast beating on my mind

My eyes are closed but dreams won’t come

Alone with myself I am confined

My blood inside is cold and numb

 

Curling into these blankets won’t avail

Nothing will rid me of this emptiness

It’s somber and I’m sensitive and frail

This feeling is agonizingly endless

 

I wonder what it’s like to share a bed

To stop wanting what I won’t acquire

There’s only loneliness ahead

So I’ll shut up and ignore my desire

 

I just want to sleep

I hate this terrifying misery

I’ll pretend I’m not afraid, yet still weep

Rid me of this forsaken place

There's such authentic agony within this poem that it resonates a profound haunting of self misery from within the confines of the subconscious mind. Nice work. A gripping read. :)

The dark and sleepless night with thoughts that haunt us and a mind that knows nothing but to cry.
This a thought evoking piece.
I really enjoyed it.


Thank you for sharing.

So very sad and dark. I love the deep emotion you pack into your words. Each line draws the reader in and lets us be there, present in the story. Very well done.

Neatly penned. Sadness haunts us all. It feasts on our souls, it drives us insane. We have all been there. Yes, we will suffer, but not forever. Time will set everything right. It will set us free.
