Where Do I Turn 7-30

I've said the same things in my head about 24 times in the last minute but every time it meant something different. These words might not make sense BUT I'm still typing to fill some void I feel I am unfulfilled Pitted to my core When I reach deep down I can't feel anymore -I am about to be trapped- I'm on the brink of it I've been on the brink for a while now Maybe this is where i live So the excitement/fear touches and it's an adrenaline rush Danger close I'm not feeling much I'm not chasing anything Not even girls anymore If I end up with the wrong one next time I'll be using them and leave them crushed I gave up the game a while ago Now I reversed it and let it come to me Perhaps that just means defeat Or conceit Maybe it was better when sc girls didn't give me the time of day and didn't give me time to settle into any ways I'm too slick for my own good and I know I got it It's a blessing but a major curse because I don't know how to use it right Or I'm always doing a comparison with better niggas like a line up side by side In a line up no nigga is better We're just all to blame -We just hope to feel better once it's over- The craziest part is that nothing will change when I'm done. (It never does) With this or my life I'm a freckle at my best The grand scheme can discard me and fill my speck with another and then put them to the test Ya boi is basic but my thoughts won't stop racin and I forgot where I was going but it doesn't matter because I know I can just GO to sleep and I'll be me there You should be there too so my thoughts won't just echo in my tomb "Racism, classism, perpetuating hate." These are just a few things I hate. No one pays attention to captions even tho everyone is crying for help too bad no one is strong enough to help themself Or maybe I'm just projecting I wonder what I'll dream tonight. Maybe I'll dream of one day moving out of flight and instead being able to fight Maybe I'll dream... Maybe it will all be forgotten upon the first thought of the real world in the morning just like they always do Maybe it'll just be black like my bathroom mirror view ****... I forgot to turn the lights on (let me fix that) . . . Nothing changed I still feel the void

Well written poem, life can be like that, doesn't it? Feel so void and without any purpose. Can relate. Welcome to PoetrySoup.
