Twisted Mind

I'm in limbo and I fear,
my mental sanity is a world away.
Shame floods through me,
for things I didn't do,
for things I've done,
for words that left my mouth,
for words I failed to say
So I swallow my pride back down
to keep with the perpetual
bleeding in my brain and
nervous burning in my heart.

I'm in limbo and I fear
my simmering blood starts to boil
as I'm waging wars with myself
for hopes lost in a blink of an eye,
for dark thoughts lurking deep within,
for tears rolling down my cheeks,
I will it to stay put
so I take the magic pill
waiting for numbness 
to send me to oblivion,
into sweet nothingness.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
