LostA Poem by Jb
My words don't even flow anymore
I don't even know where to go anymore Because my mind is closed off With the pain just manifesting Beneath a surface That I cannot seem to break through My world has been changed So estranged Because I've lost myself I've lost my voice I cannot even articulate The suffering that I've encountered These past weeks of hell Where have I gone? And when will I come back? When will I finally measure up to All the things I lack? I don't hear the laughter anymore I don't feel my heart anymore I can't even shed a single tear Because I'm too trapped in this fear Please let me break free Please allow me to Relinquish what I used to be I wasn't much to being with But there was so much within this And it's slipping through my finger tips, The grains of sand I can't even stand For I've grown so weak That I don't even know If I can seek Who I used to be Where are you? Who are you? I need you The flaws, the highs, the lows I just want to feel again The spring air in my lips The fresh air in my lungs But I don't even breath anymore I'm not even living anymore Because I'm clearly not here Insanity is what I've become Personified nonsense My body, my mind, my sole so tense Please let me break free And become that person That I used to be
