Untitled

As like the life I’m living…untitled…lost…without a name

Days flow one to the next with only the distinction of light and dark, cold or warm

A restless mind keeps the sleep away

 Emotions that twist and turn without escape, as like a buoy anchored in a churning sea…

No release in sight

Welded in place by self doubt

 A heart that is broken in a million fragile pieces…

But continues beating

 Words are lost to me…my mind can not surround them

 The simplest of sentences go unspoken

The feelings within are trapped...churning and building behind a great wall

 Fear is the one word that punctuates my being…

Leaving me frozen in time

 Severed is the connection from my mind to the pen for so long now that it’s a battle of wills to bring forth written word of the storm that brews inside

This effort leaves me drained…but the need to let go is so powerful

I’m on a journey without a destination

 In a vehicle which I can not steer

A windshield blurred and blackened

Only a mirror remains to show from where I came

 Into this day I stumble and will probably fall…over and over

 My only option is to keep going forward…blindly

With the hope that the shadows that surround me will lift

 So that I might glimpse the dawn.
