    Only Death

    Sinking deeper into depression, it feels like a rapid regression to the opression vanquished from my life years ago. Spirit is broken, nay shattered beyond repair. Feel so hallow, so meager, so weak. My very essence seems to have been destroyed. Vanished like a ghost into thin air.
    Searching for a glimpse of my reflection in every window, every mirror; can't seem to find it anywhere. Eyes worn out from crying, so sick of trying. Fed up with playing pretend; Have to be an android to be his friend.
    Wonder if this will ever end. Feeling more than defeated, resources completely depleted. Tears once fell down like rain. Soul has been demolished by anger and pain.
    I am but a shell of what I used to be. Deminished to nothing more than a drone, utterly numb to this misery. suspended here only by time, withstanding punishment having commited no crime.
    Life force dwindling with each shallow breath. Eyes growing dim, skin lack luster and dull. Soon there will be nothing left. Only death.

    This poem really captures the pain. A sad but great piece.

    I can relate to your pain. It would be nice to hold a candle to one's darkest chamber, if only it would stay lit. siaka

    good piece of work... so sad...

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
