Unfortunate Situations

Where is that place where I can hide

That place where I can shield myself from all the lies

My mind is easily deceived 

And I'm finding it harder to separate reality from fantasy

The people around me are poisoning me

But worse then that

I'm destroying myself

With the delusions and torture I put myself through

I found it hard to hide from the people

But where can I go

Where I am safe from myself?

Do I close my eyes and pretend 

That would work for a while

But the tears sheltered for so long would break free

Where would that leave me then?

I'm lost. 

It's been a while since I've been here

Suicide has never been my close friend

But the desire for the end

Is the best friend I could ever have.

great poem :)

[Forest Green]

Troubling and darkly revealing poem. Expressive of an inner self not often seen...
