Out There

A short poem about my struggles

It's hard for me to get my feelings out there.

A nagging voice in my head doesn’t allow it.

It controls my life and it's not fair.

A darkness surrounds my brainspace

Numb, lifeless, meaningless.

But who will be my saving grace?

He tries to fight it, but will not prevail

Strong will, strong mind, but I’m weak

Into my eyes he stares

But will never understand the fight.

He wonders why and how

I just want to see the light.

Out there.

The open, the free

Send a prayer.
