Past


So much stress 
Swelling my brain with thoughts 
Bad thoughts 
Washing away my dreams 
Pushing away my future 
Letting people who care go 
My past is cutting me with blades on the inside 
On the outside I'm a walking dead person
I feel nothing anymore 
I'm fading 
I'm confused 
I've been flushed away
I'm like a deer trapped in a fence
Or a cat being declawed 
I'm on a ride full of negativity 
And this road never ends 
I can't trust myself 
Let alone trust others
