Illusions Escape

by Innocent Fairy   Jan 2, 2012


I feel the silence
once again, lingering

As I fight off the tears
my thoughts dwell,
racing over and over again

What exactly did I do wrong,
where...
do I go wrong?

How do I find the words
to what you say,
how do I gather what
you make me feel

How?

How do I speak to you
and should I even bother
letting you know

Should I even bother with
any of this at all

I feel lost and
lost in things that go on

The more I feel
the closer you get
the more I let you in,
I pull back even further

Scared,
to be on my own
and frightened
of love

Afraid of the hurt
that I feel already,
unsure with everything

And I just...

I just want to escape somewhere

Anywhere from here,
from the emptiness I feel
inside my heart

But...
with nowhere to run
I lay trapped for eternity
and silence is dawning

It's just like dying

    This poem is so full of sadness.

    You can tell right away that you are in this point in your life when you feel you don't know what road to take or which decisions to make.

    The feeling of being trapped can be felt in this poem

    I absolutely love the last stanza and last line

    So very powerful and really sums up what you are feeling

    This was a good poem it really was I read it and it flowed really nicely its just so sad it makes the heart ache .... was written very nicely this way you can feel the emotions as you read -especially if you can relate. I really liked how you added the questioning if you should even bother with it too, im sure everyone asks themselves that..... but good poem :)

    ^ I can feel that you are so trapped inside the box of your emotions and his way of pulling your strings to surrender.
    I can also tell that your words are masked by a black cover which tends to psycho complexities. It was heavy, the darkness.. and I just love every part of it.
    'thee- should be the'
    -emptyness- should be emptiness'

    ..
    I tremendously like the whole atmosphere, and your susceptibility conveyed. so powerful!
