A Prayer For The...A Poem by ShyTigerStuck in my perpetual selfA prayer for the….
Me that’s locked somewhere,
There is a thing inside me that grows on sadness Because I have so much of it, it grows.
I often think of the end, when I am in a room of people and no one can see me, when I am alone starring at the phone waiting for anyone and the line of disconnect gets long and thick, wrapping around me till I cant scream…
I am the hallow, I feed it.
I feel a lone spectator in the library of life, I can peruse through the isles choose a book- the boy sitting opposite me with the red hair whose smiles stretch a little too thin- and so on trying with all my might to fit in, to transform paper pages ink and covers. I want to take a part instead of stealing glances at others.
I believe in something greater than me, I want to be saved. But I continue walking through this library, shunned stained everything screaming ‘don’t touch me’ including me. I also believe the reason why I continue on is because I am unfinished.
End. © 2012 ShyTigerAuthor's Note
