On the edge of an abyss

0 posted 2007-06-17 12:16 PM





I feel like an inconspicuous speck
in a great void of nothingness...
Where do I begin to make myself into something real,
something tangible?
How will I do it?
And will anyone notice anyway?
Am I just kidding myself
that I can become a Real person?
A Whole person?
With feelings that come honestly,
not just forced to fit the occasion?
I'm tired of going through motions without emotions.
I want to LIVE my life!
I want to FEEL my life!
But how can I turn back on feelings
that have been shut down and dead for so long?
I'm so tired of feeling empty.
I feel like screaming so loud
and so long that the windows will shatter.
I want to be able to walk Around the glass,
instead of stooping to pick up a shard to cut myself.
I just want to live, to be free.
To be normal,
whatever that is...........

Life is not a matter of destiny, but a matter of choice.

           Thanks Brittany! I'm glad you liked it, but I'm also sad that you can relate. It's horrible to feel this way, isn't it?
