Haunting Dread

All I feel is hopeless

Drive me crazy

Am anxious

I don’t know

What’s eating me

I am yelling silently

In my self.

God help me

From this feeling I get

Save me oh! Save me

Save me from myself.

I feel nothing expect

Am feeling this

I feel hatred

I feel dread

I feel nothing

Except I feel this way.

I feel nothing

Except am dismayed.

A haunting feeling everywhere

I can’t escape

No matter am any where

My affliction my anguish

How can I figure out some way?

How can I figure out some way,

Until I don’t understand

my mirrored self.

I feel nothing

Except for feeling this way

Dying crux, my faith giving up

On my way

Am running away

But I can’t escape

I can’t figure choices I make

To escape myself

To escape this grave

Mourning with woes

I keep running away.

I feel nothing

Except for feeling this way

I destroyed the good

While coming this way.

I can run away

But can’t escape my fate

To stand and face

Maybe a hope I have, someday.
