My Souls Taken

My soul got taken away a few days back I wrenched and moved But, I was unable to withstand The force of life that pulls you away That force left me in a sway The hideousness of the world The gird of the unwinding word I twist in turmoil I scream in Pain I do not know what is happening to me I know not what to do All I know is something inside of me is lost forever too The fear I feel, The anger I vent The utter despair perpetuates I can no longer hold on to life like I used to I can no longer seem to hold it straight I want to be strong but They keep pulling me Down I want to stand up but their thoughts weigh me down I want to live in peace I want to go away To a far off place Where I may just lay down and stay…..

The feelings of pain we can have deep inside of us, can be so excruciating, and you worded that very well. Welcome to PoetrySoup
