A reoccurring theme

The buildup of pressure that sparks the masses

The longing of pain that drives me insane

I feel the weight upon my chest

The gridding of despair going deeper in my soul

Like a vortex sucking me dry

I lie awake at night wishing that the numbness would overtake me

Knowing this is my only salvation

Feeling the weight of the world corrupting my stability 

That is why

I write to release my pain 

To find my escape 

The only way out for me 

To cleanse my soul

Before becoming numb again

Then there is no hope
