Yet again

Just something I thought up while being bored.

I find myself lost.

I find myself broken.

Yet again...

I feel alone. 

I see only myself standing here.

Staring into the paralice night, unable to face this world on my own.

Yet again...

I am black and empty inside.

I wither and cry. 

Tears shed in arduous silence, where everything seems irretrievable.

Yet again...

I promise myself I'll stop.

Swear this will be the end.

But tomorrow is but a moving shadow, untouchable by my weak, trembling hands.

So yet again...

I sit here.

I delve into someone else's fantasies. 

Because my light has faded, my dreams have ended.

Though I cling to the hope of another day. One brighter, something more. 

Only it is but a frail piece compared to the doubt regulating the excess of my mind.

Not that great at poetry but I try. :)

There is such an overwhelming hopelessness in this write, until we get to the last stanza then a flicker, very powerful feeling of clinging to hope in just one line, something more, which is obvious, because it's there, it's a great piece of dark poetry grasping for life. Conveyed with strength, loved the use of vocabulary, not sure about paralice is that meant to be paralyze?

Lol, yeah, I didn't notice that. Thankx.
And thank-you for your input, I was really down that day :P

At times, when I'm writing. But a little sadness doesn't scare me, I know the bad just makes the good better :)

[cevance]

It speaks of sadness to me, but yet, it makes me smile, because it's a very nice composition.

I love this as a whole but this line really stood out to me ... "But tomorrow is but a moving shadow, untouchable by my weak, trembling hands."
I think many will be able to relate to this write..xo
