Defeated

by skye   Nov 3, 2010


Standing on the edge of liefs uncertainty
I ponder for a while
what is to become of me
will this rid me of denial

I pause and look over the cliff
at the waves clashing like thunder
holding onto the happy memories
as the demons drag me under

my mind is so messed up
my soul is haunted by hate
I'm crying out for help
but I'm aware of my own fate

I feel so wounded
so out of control
barely alive in this world
longing to feel whole

My heart beats fast
with my desire to fall
but I cant, I wont
Im waiting for you to call

To scared to end it all
so afraid to make it better
I jump from within
the waves engulf me

    Hey, This poem is not true but the emotion is real, sometimes on bad days when my thoughts are the worst I write to make everything go away and to feel better. When you write the worst things imaginable is some what cleansing (for me anyway) Thankyou for taking intrest and leaving a comment. I took into consideration some of your comments and made some changes to the poem.

    A sad write and even sadder if this is true. It pains me to see hundreds of people who look at life with absolutely no meaning and also feel like they don't belong when they are really meant to be here for a purpose. Anyway to the poem I was overwhelmed by the sadness and sense of lost. The flow was descent though it got lost in parts but it still was good. The rhyming seemed forced in areas but that improves with time and skill. Great job and keep writing.
