The Truth of Me

Struggling with emotion There is no cause to be found A sadness creeps in I'm suddenly way down Cold air breathes through my lungs But rather than wake me it makes me sleep Ready to hibernate or alone walk the dark streets Eyes open wide budding with tears Filled with dread akin to fear Its a struggle internal and no one can see Because I artfully hide the truth of me

For whatever reason this poem posted twice...I removed the first one, because there was no point in having two of the same things.

When we remember that our connection to the cosmos is eternal than loneliness seems like a futile smile - J.A.B. %
