Nightmare

Everyday feels like a nightmare.

Like something is tearing away at me.

I hold back tears

Because it would smear the ink boldly crafted into words.

Small drops on the corner of my paper.

Every inch of skin.

Every lock of hair.

Every breath I take.

I tremble with silence

And I feel empty.

Like I'm just a shell.

And it's driving me mad

I can feel myself quickly becoming insane.

So loud is this silence screaming.

Echoing in my head I can hear my thoughts.

Slowly I pick myself apart

Piece by piece.

And I shred myself apart on the inside

Because I don't know what to do.

Because it's never been like this.

[Coyote Poetry]

A powerful poem.Expressing sadness and disappointment in every line. Some people hide their anger till one day they can blow up. I believe if you dislike where you are. Try to find a better place. No weakness in the excellent poem.
