vortex


[ WARNING: PRETTY INTENSE STUFF ]




The room so brightly lit

The people so painfully jolly

Me right here

Inanimate, ignored

As usual

All alone, in a corner...


A void

Black, sucking

Taking me

Destroying me...

The vortex - pulling...

My essence - ebbing...ebbing...


My inner self

Crying the tears

That spring to my eyes

Brimming...brimming with the salty water...

Hear this desperate cry - for help...

Hear this cry, mine, for a ray of hope...


Hear it... please!!


But, of course

Who can hear?

Who wants to?

And anyhow...

If hear they did

Who'd want to help?

And how indeed?


I shall be so bold

As to say

Madness, pure and true

Shall be better than this that I am...

Such my world suddenly dark

A hopeless despair setting in cruelly...


"Oh precious soul mine!

Oh come back hope!

Oh come back ambition!

Oh come back self!

Come back...come back..."

So I sob, "come back..."


Alas! My cries are in vain

"As is all that I do"

Whispers the devil that

Has taken hold of my soul...

See! See! See what I've become...

See how shameful I am...


Despair takes hold of me

Its grip; firm, merciless

And it vows to hold

For ever more...

And all I am able to do

Is cry and sob...till tears no more...


Save me... none can... I think...

blu3rain said...

nay, the eye of calm may have a lesser pressure...but it still sucks me in...

heheh my superhero...my saviour ae? hoping and dreaming... hoping and dreaming... again and again...perhaps not everyone has a saviour... perhaps loners like me have to get ourselves out...or get sucked way in...

comment much touches my dreams...thankyou, anonymous =)

thats heart wrenching to read.sp for some1 like me who cares for u like none other.if only you would luk closer rather than far and wide. u will c ppl who truly stand by u thru thik n thin.who dont despair over ur failures.instead gives out their hand for u2 haul urself back up on ur feet.if only u will keep holding on2 those hands with trust that they wont let go.no matter what.if only.if only u wud keep lukin ahead.not at what u leave behind.strong will conquers all.determination if strong enuf can achieve all.and then there is ur faith.where u turn when all else fail.that which not fail u.waste not life in despair.its ur life.no 1s else business to take care of it.after all u got just one life.ever tried counting ur blessings?how do they weigh against ur presumed despaires?the wise make most of their blessings.not waste their life sobbing on not getting the unreachables
