My painA Poem by Juliana MoralesMy Pain I look at the yellow oval shaped capsule next to me, 3601 it reads, with a capital V on the front. I hold it, contemplating swallowing away my pain, i just want to send it on a train far far away from here. No more tears, I can't handle another breakdown like today, is what i have become so use to saying everyday. I wake up, and it's the same routine, trying to tame my demons that give me all the reasons to be a zombie. They call my name, the drag me in, they are the only ones who truly understand my pain. The pain that i have beard with me for so long, carrying it on my back, as i stare at the track marks lingering on my skin. My pain has taken over everything i do and say, even as i lay here high and feed myself lies with "I'll stop tomorrow." all I can think about is how I'm going to shower next; with no hot water to wash my thoughts away, they lay on me like a tray. On my walk to work, I can hear my stomach fighting me, not just from my underfed morning, but from the pain that shivers inside of my bones, It feels like I have eaten nothing but stones. I am alone, with a sea of people watching me. Many say this isn't true, but you will ultimately stop reading this, and never have a clue on what i really go through. This is nothing but a simple summary of my demise, the after affect of what happens when a teenager cries more than she can count the lies that she's been told. I'm on the hunt to discover my soul, and it seems like life has taken it's toll. A toll that I have payed my entire heart with, when others only have to throw their 2 cents in. I am awake but i am not alive, I sleep, but i cannot dream. I eat, but i do not taste. But worst of all, I love, even when I am unlovable. My pain is inevitable. © 2015 Juliana Morales |
