Sheer perplexity
I have found thee
You haunt my every thought
And robbed me of my sleep
Grudging along
Forgetting what must be
Forgot
Easier said than done
To move forward
I must let go
Time has left me
Tired
I take in what I can
And hope it kills me
In the end
I still often
Think thoughts
That should’ve never been brought
To light
Why should I wait for any of you?
Anymore?
I’m lagging
Trudging
I’m just laying here
Grudging
Why can’t I just give up?
Author notes
This one's a tad scatter-brained. Forgive me.
Please tell me what you think

"still often

Nice, I don't see it as, "scatter-brained."
Who say's that poetry 'has' to make a lot of sense.
It's all about the emotion. Again, nice piece.
P.S. Although, you may consider brightening the font a little, I had to look real close to read it.

Honesty
I can see somewhere as you write this that you dug deep to find a way to express your mood and thoughts.
This feels honest and very deep and I imgine something from inside came outside. Your words are very expressive, hauntingly so. I like this more than the others i have read

These words that night kept floating around in my head. I felt that if I put them to paper, then it would stop and I could sleep. Surprisingly, it worked. Thanks for the comment Terry
