Strangled

Strangled...

Strangled,

I hear but do not speak.

downcast eyes and ceaseless breathing

what is it to live? to be awake; watchful?

Strangled,

Invisible fingers slither on skin

threats whispered; raspy.

mindless shuffling round

and roundfor answers that are no where to be found.

Mystified,

Half-awake and half in dreams

but lucid as water in little streams.

conscious ness a gift and an enemy

valiantly trying to escape

dreams that will never be

Strangled,

And silently screaming—

for a head to turn; to recognizea

dying dream,

a dying mind,

broken; disillusioned.

Strangled,

Prying for answers—

the question itself; yet to be found.

drugged into a peaceful sleep,

but struggling in depths

of the unknown—

fear

anger

rage and jealousy

rapturously beaming—

and a cure—

nowhere to be found.

No one's here, no one cares...

The voices are talking

They are resounding

Getting clearer & clearer

Day by day, night by night

All this time I’m unguarded

Trying to survive in this ice world

I’m vulnerable, I’m weak

No one’s here, no one cares

I keep walking down this road

This road filled with glass shards

I’m hurt, I’m bleeding

No one’s here, no one cares

I try to run, I try to hide

But I can’t succeed

I’m lost, I’m scared

No one’s here, no one cares

Left by myself in this world

I’m falling into an abyss

I’m sad, I’m in pain

No one’s here, no one cares

I have no where to run in the end

At last I’m left all alone

I’m not missed, I’m unwanted

No one’s here, no one cares
