Face It

Face It

A Poem by Jex
"

Sometimes reality is harsh

"
Its all consuming
terror inducing
and there no escape, no matter how hard you try
you cant breathe
you can't see
never able to think straight
You are just going in circles over and over again
Trying to fight some never ending nightmare
Trying to tell yourself that its okay
You will be fine
You are stronger then this
Just telling yourself those same little lies
Like a prayer
Hoping that if you say it hard enough...
or over enough...
it will somehow become true
But all you are doing is being deceitful
Trying to manipulate your own mind
What a joke
playing up this facade to your self,
image looking into a mirror
and seeing what a phony you really are
 coming face to  face with how treacherous you really are
Your overwhelm 
Trying to outrun time
Out run your own mind
except you cant
Because you are drowning
Screaming into a soundless abyss
Shut Up
Shut up!
SHUT UP!
Your Echos bouncing uselessly all around
Trying to find a peace that you know will never exist
Because it doesn't exist
You'll only be driving yourself mad
Fighting all the voices in your head
Its hopeless
Its exhausting 
You are lost
Don't know where to go
Or what to do
So what do you do?
Is there anything that you can do
You try with all your might to fix it
make it go away, but you  cant'
accept it
