The Path Alone

The Path Alone

A Poem by Moth Phoenix

          

Arms out by my side, and my eyes open wide. 


Bleeding these tears that keep me alive, I feel the aches and pains. 


My head is numb and my mind speaks a thousand words,


don’t release me from my chains. I sit here and think, ponder, and tell,


while I walk the black forest, and just wander. 


An endless path I see no end, but a light, a light over the horizon,


one more push cause I’m still tryin. 


The tress are black and they hug me close, another mark is that I’ve chose. 


I drink the moon in and listen to the wind, but somehow I can’t, can’t understand my thoughts. 

I scream, but nothing comes. I talk but only lies escape. 


Am I horrible? Beaten down  and bloody? 


No honey, wake up, and learn you’re worth more. 

I cut

bleed

cry 

but sometimes

I…

    just… 

             want…

  to…

die…

It's been a rough week, so I felt like I needed to get some feelings "on paper"

This has a lot of strong emotion in it, off and on I get depressed and feel alone. I can feel this write

Wow... I've been here. I sit alone in the darkness and look up at the sky a lot more than I'd like to admit. I know this feeling all too well.

But , you have to keep fighting. You have to keep trying. Yes. You ARE worth it.❤
