WAVES


These waves of emotion out of control as I sit by the freeway with no control All alone yet thousands who see me The voices are saying there here to get me I fight and I struggle to control what I feel but I can see, feel, and taste it as if it were real Battles can only be fought all alone But the waves of my struggle are crashing down I'm feeling as if the war will not be won I'm a man no more who can even perform Who could want me after these waves take hold and drag me down to depths unknown I struggle to believe even those I love and destroy myself more pushing away in my head but it's all that I want and can not have Maybe one day these waves will subside and I'll be able to have that life

WorthlessP.O.S.14

Nothing to tell just a figment of this reality floating amongst the the chaos we call life as we wander aimlessly hoping we are meant for more yet ever proving we as individuals mean nothing without a better half long lost to the abyss we call our society. Fuck it the shadows say im not meant for here and have been fighting the inevitable demise of my earthly form for years I need to be with my people, its home, this life is pain, heartache, and disappointment the next has to be better.
