Oblivion

Lost in the nothingness
It was lonely, dark and deep.
Found myself caught in it's stillness
Urging me to stop, lulling me to sleep

My life's a ball of darkness
Floating in the abyss of despair
I am no one
Not even a dot on that ball
Rather a dust, barely holding on to stop the fall.

But failed.

Falling deep into oblivion
I felt nothing.
I am void of emotion.

I found solace in darkness
No one will hurt me
Throwing away my consciousness
I succumb into emptiness.

I opened my eyes.

Then, I saw someone,
a woman.
Caged inside her fears.
She's not shouting
Even when bleeding.
She's so familiar
But felt like a stranger.
Now, she's drifting further.
As she stared at me with no emotion
As if she knew my darkest sides known to none.

I tried to reach her,
she did too.
But failed miserably.
She smiled sadly
I did too as tears flow freely.
I slammed the cage harshly
As if inexistent, she vanished quickly.
Tracing the slits from the broken mirror.
I laughed dryly.
How come even my reflection
Shows nothing but sadness and desperation?
Why did we caged ourselves into this situation?

Right.
Because it's the only way to fight my demons.
To run away, to forget, to cage my self and my emotions.
To fall into deep oblivion
