how do I feel?
like the waves on the shore
they come and go, but never cease to exist
with every deep breath my chest expands, and then
the weight falls harder than before
you cant see that i'm being pillaged under the crashing waves
sometimes i just don't want to breathe anymore
today, i take the mask off
its time i stop pretending that
i have full control
because in the water i'm drinking is poison
day by day i am extinguishing my flame
strength already turned to weakening
and i've been going by a false name

Not much to say??
I think you explained your feelings very well indeed L
Great write
Did it help?
Thank you, I feel like it's just a lack of awareness to what season i'm in right now. Hopefully my writings will be more inspired in the near future
To pull something out of an empty feelings is quite inspiring...
I think you captured your feeling or unfeeling really well.
Writing is like my therapy.
Hope spring springs hope ⭐️
Thank you for your feedback, sometimes nothingness is all the inspiration we need.
Lovely 'feelings' writing poet. I often wonder whether i am writing poetry or self healing. It's good to let your heart and feelings speak out here. We have poets eyes and ears.
Keep writing... more please.
Poetry truly is an expression of the soul. More writings in progress-
