Away I Fade

The feeling of being lost.

In your own life. 

Like the ticking of the clock.

Will it continue.

This twisted tick tock.

Is this a game. 

Fading away into the unknown.

With this ghost filled with pain. 

The door is open to the future.

But afraid to step in, I am 

Take the blinders off my eyes please.

I may fade away.

And how far

 I must see.

Into the dark blue ocean. 

I can feel the threat

The pain

Please carry me to the shoreline 

So i can prepare.

How to rescue this ghost. 

It is so deep.

It will have to be tomorrow.

For I need the full day of sunshine.

this is beautiful I could help but imagine falling from a cliff 100's of feet above the ground and as I slowly fall these worlds play in my mind .. Have I done everything right or do I need a whole new day to fix my mistakes.. but right now it's time for me to just fade away :) I loved this, Favorited.

A beautiful poem. Had use of time, memory and hope and a positive ending. Sometime the sea can save us and rebirth hope and rebirth new dreams for tomorrow. Thank you for the excellent poem.

Procrastination in motion ;-) I like the gauzy feel of this. Very nicely done. One small note, the word is 'carry' not 'cary'...well done.
