Rant

AnAlpaca

Can you even hear me? Why don't you say anything?
Not looking for dating, even sex!
Just a simple, "Hello, good work," that's all.
Here I am writing, internally screaming,
Whistling past the graveyard; that's where I'm heading!
Yours since the mid 90's. Probably don't know I exist!
"Let go," I hear. Does anyone understand; it's not that easy!
Look into her eyes, those emerald pools.
That smile, that d***, f****** smile!
Screaming, would it help?
Tried almost everything else.
Writing doesn't remove the pain,
Thinking doesn't stop the storm,
Doing doesn't stop me seeing her face.
Sanity is slipping; I am slipping.
The world is on fire and I'm playing the fiddle,
Playing for someone who can't; won't hear.

    its crazy
    how many words we have to say
    while alone with our thought's
    yet how inarticulate we feel
    while trying to get them across
    to someone, we once were convinced
    was our gifted soulmate in life...
    (grab hold to something real
    and find an avenue for release
    then just hold on: hold on
    with every ounce of sanity
    you can muster,
    remember, there are worse experiences
    in this chaotically indifferent, existence...
    Hold on!
