endless descent:
im lost inside a darkness
that no one seems to see,
a void that keeps on pulling
every last bit out of me.
i wake to find the daylight
is just another lie,
a cruel and empty promise
that i dont know how to buy.
theres a numbness in my spirit,
a dull ache in my bones,
i dont know where im going,
only that im going alone.
i feel like im dissolving,
fading piece by piece,
like every breath im taking
is one more i dont need.
im tired of the pretending,
of the smiles that crack and break,
of feeling like a burden
with every step i take.
i cant remember happiness,
or when i felt at peace,
i only know the darkness,
the hurt that doesnt cease.
people say it gets better,
but ive waited for so long,
and all i feel is emptiness
in places i dont belong.
i scream into the silence,
but no one hears my cries,
im drowning in the shadows
of a life i dont recognize.
i wish i could just vanish,
like a whisper on the wind,
to slip out of existence
and let the darkness win.
because im tired of this battle,
of fighting to survive,
when all i feel is hollow
and barely still alive.
so if i go, just know this
it wasnt that i lied,
i tried to find the light here,
but the darkness was too wide.
