Lost in Transaction

The_One_That_Got_Away

Pain makes life run thin

Makes the body go numb to the touch

Lost in transaction

Never to find a connection

 

Seeking but never finding

Seeing but never believing in yourself

Lost and giving up

Broken but don’t care

 

Simple but out of place

Easy as I hide

Tremble of the thought of no more

Blank is my expression….

As pain makes life run thin

    interesting poem , i like the wording in this .. '' pain makes life run thin'' pain does nothing to help life.

    Scary to think that you / the subject may have experienced so many negative interactions that the term "Lost in transaction" was warranted ~ it's very effective!

    Regarding the "tremble" ~ was it a shudder of defeat, or a reluctance to let go of hope? / Does the subject really no longer care, or is their 'indifference' only a shield and their "blank expression" a mask?
