Out Of Reach Poems

Crunch

Crunch and creak the floorboards scream

As I try to escape this dreadful nightmare

Scuff and scratch goes the pitch black cat

As I trip on it's tail

Boom and bash goes the weather outside

As I walk the stairwells

Squeak and squawk the birds they mock me

As I gaze out the windows

Hoot and howl goes the wolves and owls

As the rope dangles back and forth

Pitter and patter sings the rain

As I wallow in pain

Splish and splash my once siblings play in puddles

As I wish I wasn't so insanley troubled

Squish and squelch goes the thickest mud

As I trudge through it in boots

Slip and slide goes the tears down my face

As I stand in the middle of the field

I believe that I should be erased

I kneel and crumble

I feel like I have no purpose

Is any of this even worth it

I'm barely breathing

I'm hardly holding on

I fall on the ground

And all is silent

All is sound
