No Name

This is something that came out when I got up this morning.

Some days I feel like I want to die

Other days I just want to cry

Looking back I've made so many  mistakes

But that was the path my life did take

My dreams are haunted every night

Wake up so angry I just want to fight

What I would give for a good nights sleep

A peaceful dream and some joy to keep

So many demons from my past 

How long can this possibly last

Is this what's it's like to go insane

The darkness refuses to leave my brain

So I keep on writing to get it out

No use trying to scream and shout

Oh please give me one night of peace

So then my mind won't cease

This is beautifully sad.. and I can obviously relate to this..! there are many haunted nights even i have gone through in my life..!! but still life goes on..!!but we always try to shed this pain by writing it over and over on a piece of paper..!!
thanks for sharing..:)

Great rythm and rhyme with a very important struggle annunciated. A learned work of art. Thank you.

Totally relateable. Just like those days that things just don't seem right, no matter how good it may be otherwise. All the mistakes never hesitiate to come back to haunt us. Nice work! Keep it up!

you can do a lot better, i know you can... now i'm speaking because i got used to a a certain measure of work from you... but this isn't all too bad!
keep it better!

I really like this poem. "The darkness refuses to leave my brain / So I keep on writing to get it out / No use trying to scream and shout" I think thats why a lot of us write. I know its the only way I keep my sanity sometimes!! And even then I'm still slightly insane :) Very well written. You captured the feeling very well. Good work.

This really caught me off guard. I heard my mind say, "Oh, my gosh! I'm not alone!" I often still wonder if it'd be better if I could just die--get away from the pain. Your words are very genuine and deep. I love how it goes against the typical hypocrites who pretend to always be happy and to judge others by their honesty of feelings. Not to say that I don't have wonderful people in my life now, but the nightmares, flashbacks and dark memories do seem to drag us down back into that pit. I'm still dealing with an addiction (that no one in my family seems to understand) that I don't feel ready to let go. Excellent writing!
