Midnight Rambles

Midnight Rambles

A Poem by Gypsy Willow
"

I couldn't sleep...

"

I am torn 
Torn between a life that is 
and a life that could be 
 
I am alone 
Alone yet accompanied 
distant, though you can't tell 
 
I am silent 
Silent yet screaming, 
apologies you'll never hear 
 
I am sorry 
Sorry for my mistakes, 
the pain I see in your eyes 
 
I am confused 
Confused by the options 
given in my fragile state 
 
I am hurt 
Hurt by myself 
and the secrets I hold 
 
I am tired 
Tired of pretending, 
wearing a mask of porcelain 
 
I am done 
Done with my mind 
always dragging me down 
 
I am afraid 
Afraid of myself,  
and where everything is going 
 
I am realizing 
Realizing that this 
will never be over.

An incredible message that parlays into the judgment of others, nothing needs to be changed within image and flow, maybe flesh out the wording a tad, just ot hammer home some points, otherwise, very well written, good job.
