I wish I could fly far away from the pain inside me
The numbness followed by sorrow I need to set it free
My desires have been crushed, my spirit broken
These feelings I have continue to go unspoken
The fear inside me makes me afraid to speak
The tears I keep hidden make my body weak
My mind is a cloud of confusion
I go through everyday living in my own delusion
In the real world I feel so out of place
Theres so much of my past I wish I could erase
Lost loves, tearful goodbyes, regrets fill my mind
Sometimes I just need somewhere to go and unwind
To lay down the burden so I don’t feel so alone
Music fills the air, taking me to my only comfort zone
Sweet voices of truth sing of sadness and pain
Revelations that life is sometimes just a sad game
Through all the twists, turns, ups and downs
It can feel smothering as if your trying to drown
Some days I just want to leave this place
Life gets so hard at times to even face
Maybe today will be better who knows maybe I'll even smile
Welcome to another day of denial

This poem seems like it would be quite easy to relate to, it is quite dark but filled with strong emotions.
Thank-you for the entry. -
as we have become friends these past couple of days, you know i can relate to pain from a death that was close to me. i have been there and i'm glad you're able to bounce back just as i have. your poetry is as good as your story writing. i will have to give you five stars for your present story you have on storywrite. you have a great imagination. good luck in the contest, DARK.
