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.
