Only A Matter Of Time

Just...words coming out of my mind.

Words bounce around in my head, 

But never come completely to the surface. 

It's like, they exist...but just barely, 

Yet they still haunt my days...even when I'm half alive. 

These words can be thrown when I'm in my deepest state, 

The state of depression where I talk to no one, 

And I do nothing...I sit, like a zombie, waiting to die, 

And then the words come and attack me. I am nothing. 

I wish to the stars and the moon that I wasn't alive, 

These thoughts appear out of thin air it seems, 

And I don't want to deal with the cold anymore! 

This world is so cold, so dark! So...so completely disturbing. 

Perhaps we try along with our everlasting "love" and hearts, 

To live just one more day, and to breath a few thousand breaths. 

But my question is; why does life exist, if we just coast along? 

Why do we have to breathe? Why would we want to? 

It's a dark place here...a cool and mysterious death chamber. 

Yes, a death chamber. For we all die; thus this will be our place of death. 

Death lives within our bodies, and words lie within our minds, 

But once we put them together, it is only a matter of time.

Death is an ultimate part of life but so is love and light and hope and being able to revel in the sure joy of living and seeking love as well. I hope you are able to find that love and that place in your heart where you realize that your life does matter and that every life means something and I think you will find even in the dark you are more loved than you might have expected.

Truly thought provoking write... we think the hourglass is always half full not half empty grains filtering to the bottom, but it's only a matter of time. All we can do is live life to the fullest and hope and dream not waste away even though it may seem never ending or dreary or just plain frightening. It may be a dank and completely dark death chamber, but every grave has its angels. Light creates shadows and in the midst of death there's life sometimes. Well penned piece indeed ;)

TheLordsName,

This piece is intensely moving. I admire you for being able to just blurt out your inner thoughts and doubts; fears and anxiety. I find this very therapeutic.

I believe this assembly of your feelings of the moment could be written into a very good poem. A poem which could be a source of hope and healing for someone.

So I suggest you do a rewrite while reading it aloud and edit it according to your heart's suggestions.

Great job. Promising work. Worth the read.

If you decide to rework it, please ask me to review it.

Thank you for sharing it with us.

Sincerely,

Cecil
