Default These times...

In the moment...

You can't feel yourself,
You're numb,
And you feel hollow.

When you look in the mirror,
And you don't...
Recognise your own eyes.

When you can't hear,
Over the deafening noise,
That static, life creates to drown your loss.

When your body takes no more,
No more nourishment,
No more thought.

Your mind gives in,
While your soul...
Won't let out.

And all the time, you're stuggling
And you're fighting, evreything...
That it's telling you.

Fighting to the inch,
With every concievable,
Stretch and pull you can force.

Scraping and scratching,
At the walls of the hole,
That you're hopelessly encircled by.

Shouting to a person,
'Till rasping voiced...
Even though they don't exist.

Grasping at lines, imaginary...
Anything at all...
To pull yourself out.

All for a measure of mercy.





"What are we going to do?"
("что делать будем?")





"Enjoy the moment."
("наслаждаца моментом")

oh my! this sound rather desperate & lonely... do you really feel this way?
(in fact any of my prison pen-pals could have written that (I am in a prisoner helping NGO) - such a degree of despair! Scratching at the walls... what an image... I just wonder what makes you feel like this?

This is a nice poem. I hope you're doing alright as well though.

Thank you so much for reading, and thanks for both of your concerns...

Yes, i'm doing alright at the moment, I just went through a rough patch for a while a few days ago. I don't think i'm completely over with the issue I was struggling with just yet, but it's getting better day by day.

A small "I hope you feel better soon" poem; I don't do Hallmark, but the sentiment is true.

from darkness…
deep within, beneath the benthic depths
the snow fresh moon awaits
to slowly shower down, in pale puffs
her brilliance ascendant

Thank you, Alyara, for some very, very beautifully put words... In fact, it brought back a very beautiful good memory of mine.

Thanks for the moment.
