Emptiness. Silence. Loneliness.

Primal screams of rage conjured up from within.

They hit the air like drops of water on heated metal.

I share my room with no one.

My horror is my own.

Fear taunting me like the sound of banshee's
in my head.

I give the key to no one.

Solitude becoming a way of life.

The silence not golden but deafening.

My suffering punding ceaseless,
Without tranquility.

I share my room with no one.

Private and destitute a place.

Dementia it's sole purpose.

The wrath is forth coming.

Terror misting the eyes, causing pools of rain,
From the malice deep within me.

Raised hands above the earth,
Imploring the maker for asylum
away from this wretched place.

No escape. No harmony.

I share my room with no one.

Sheer paranoia. A living demise.

Scarry~ but there is something to be said for holding the key.

I think that is your out if you so choose to make it be.  I also understand that's easier said than done.

I've been there done that, surrounded by the sound of silence.  

I'm sorry for these feelings that you have.

I could feel your pain, anger, and loneliness. It was almost palpable. May you get past these difficult times, and have your bedroom a place of peace and joy...

May your dreams be sweet and reflect a joyous reality!

Peace & Love,
EA

Yes Goddess. I've spent too much time there. I try not to go back TOO often. But I do visit.

Thank you sweetie!

Albert, I've been there in the past quite a lot. I sure didn't like it at all, and try very hard not to visit it again. I do admit that I sometimes feel myself slipping back to that territory. But, I try my best not to take the journey. It's depression to me.

Heart Hugs to you,
Ethel

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Albert, this is so very sad, dearest friend, I know this feeling ever so much as I am living in this asylum right now and have half a mind to believe love just isn't for me and should leave it to those who really need it! (sad sigh) I send many angel hugs your way, sweet friend, love will find your deserving heart, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Albert, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Oh man...This aches...:'( I wish I could give ya a big hug! Keep your head up and keep the pen in hand. It is a great release. ~humungous hugs~
