Fading

Cold dread and a feeling of being disconnected
worms its way into the depths of who and what I am

My thoughts and feelings are a hopeless jumbled 
mess of confusion as the fear of being forgotten 
by all permeates my very being and I slowly fade 
away into the nothingness that I have become

Ew, oh, yes - I do get this spill of misery ink! Please read my 'Fragile Solitude' for if this is your mood, the poem will hit you (very short) just as you hit my gray areas. An effective write, Michael. All the best ... CayCay
