Slink

PurpleGlasses

I'm slipping and falling

On this brick path that I walk

The lane out of nowhere

This lane of my thoughts 

 

The path was once stable

Secure, I would've thought

Sought for in escape

Escaped, I have not

 

Strong and stable

It lead me through troubles

A reliant companion

Withstood all of the hurdles

 

Yet piece by piece 

as time moved on

Bits broke off 

The road got worn 

 

Worned out by the burden 

The road lost weight

Supporting me less

Getting slim round the waist

 

Sickend by sorrows

And it's intention to help 

His limited form

It leaves him wrecked 

 

In years of his service 

The walker forgot 

To tend care to the road 

The road of his thoughts

  • Comment from author about the poem: This is about a abusive relationship I have with myself. I use my mind to focus and concentrate and force emotions out of me. It worked pretty well. I did not realise the weight of the side effects. Cause emotions will get to you one way or the other. And now I'm left to deal with whats been accumulating these past years. Of course there is much more to it. But I tried to summarize it as much as possible. I hope you understand what this poem means to me . Or better, perhaps you relate to it in some way :) Until tomorrow :)
