Save Yourself

Wide awake, my mind racing Can’t even put into words What I am thinking It’s dark and cold Laying all alone Empty bed fills my empty room Sleep deprivation kicking in Just close my eyes Let my mind unwind From all the craziness I’m taking in But won’t let out I shake and scream I begin to shout My nightmares begin They don’t stop I’m going under Save yourself.

Great emotional piece, Steph. I can feel the honesty spilling from your pen, as you wrote this poem. Good imagery displayed in this piece, enjoyable overall. Check out some of my poems. Might find some you like. Peace.

anger does make people do crazy things, nightmares, I know a lot about how those feel, I'll try to "save myself" short but expresive.
