That Dark Void

by Lilychu   Jun 11, 2020


Have you ever felt trapped
No escape from life
But your one focus
Is to stay alive

You want to live
To see that happy day
When you’re with your husband
And you hear your kid say

“I love you, mammy”
Those heart-warming words
That makes you excited
And make your stomach turn

But now you’ll never have that moment
Because you’re trapped here
Alone in this darkness
With nothing but your pain and fear

And you can try to get out
You can try to break free
You can try to shout
“Someone, please help me”

But your actions are useless
And further down you go
Where you’ll end up

Is still a mystery that no one knows…

      Thank you. I'd say I've improved that skill, so that means a lot

    I've been gone for a while, and I must apologise for that. I haven't had any motivation to write a poem. This is based off true feelings with the fear of feeling so down, who knows if I'll make it. With love and support from my family and friends, there's definitely a chance. I don't want to let everything go, and until things get worse, I'm not going to.
