Drifting Away From Myself

Drifting away from myself Is like breaking of the chord Division inside me Disconnection of inner me from reality Loosing my identity Don't care whose watching But heart sobbing silently Arms crossed over my head Eyes blurred with tears Like a lost child wondering around Its an unbearable nightmare Is like sinking in a pool of schizophrenia.

@ Lwandle one may not understand the true significance of these words because of the unique manner by which they flow but with experience comes wisdom and once as a person you face such impediments, its a way of life. So ultimately this is a wonderful piece of art cause I can relate completely,many of us can I'm sure. so thank you.

Thank you so much Liyema for reading I'm so pleased that someone somewhere can relate to what I went through and sometimes I feel like I didn't express this very well because it felt more than I tried to pen it here. Thank you and God bless

You've caught these feelings well, and packaged them with such sincerity and care. Great words.
