The Thin Line

The Thin Line

A Poem by E
"

Daily struggles Current Lifestyle VS Christian Lifestyle. Present VS Future Current me VS Ideal me.

"
her eyes darkened by the nights
the days too bright; 
the nights too cold
the days too loud;
the nights lonely as ever
her mind gone with her soul
to a land no one knows
owls and vampires know:
there is no return
skin pale, ribs thickening
mind stable 
mind nothing
mind boring
mind sleeping
in a sleepless sleep
a sleeplessness 
that sleepers sleep through

Inexplicable feeling
walking on a fine line
afraid to step in either direction
the choice is clear
blinders are doing the job
Focusing is out of question
each day a step on either side
each day a struggle
the line is thinner 
time is running out
happiness only comes to those who choose
the choice is simple
simple minded me
complicating everything
living on the wrong side
not wanting to switch
not knowing how
not wanting to give in
to let go
to be free
to break links
to lose futilities

I'm not good with poetry, but I think this is a very poignant description of a personal struggle. I wish I could write like this.

When you have the hardest time expressing yourself verbally, When your thoughts are a big mess, When nothing seems to make sense, When you're not sure what you are feeling, Writing is the answer. more..
