paralysis

A Poem by Nina Love

Sitting at my desk

Staring at the board

All I hear is white noise

It swarms around me

Like a hoard of hungry insects

Infiltrating my thoughts

Driving me crazy

Till I think I'm liable to explode

And the shattered remains of my consciousness

Is scattered like broken glass upon the floor

 

Sitting at my desk

Staring at the board

The blank stare in my eyes

Belying the thoughts racing through my mind

Dead-eyed to the world

But weeping and screaming my sorrow

Deep inside

The broken doll

Called Nina

 

Unable to move

Caught in my own web

Of thoughts and memories

Till I wither away

Into a empty husk

Tears streaming from my eyes

Sitting at my desk

Staring at the board

Nice job. I like the imagrey and such. Staring off into space, meditating in darkness...or so it seems. I like the subject matter too. Good Idea. I like it ^^.
