Just stop thinking
As shadows move in endless time
I try desperately to release my mind
To stop the noise of the pounding drum
Which forbids my head from being numb
So seconds flow and hours pass
Yet my eyes still watch the shadows creep
Across the desert of my sleep.
I just want emptiness to swallow me
And know I am finally free.
I try desperately to release my mind
To stop the noise of the pounding drum
Which forbids my head from being numb
So seconds flow and hours pass
Yet my eyes still watch the shadows creep
Across the desert of my sleep.
I just want emptiness to swallow me
And know I am finally free.

About this poem:
The middle of a dark poem.I like that writing poetry helps get the words out of my head my sadness turning into such hauntingly beautiful art.
Only middle of poem was posted as entire poem is quite suicidal which I am not. I found this piece amongst my uni studies when I was packing to move house.. It is strange to look back 2 years and wonder how you even got out of bed,... After tragedy..
