Nowhere Land
I’m not trying to play pretend
still I feel forced to wear a mask
trapped in nowhere land
where all my time is wasted
from lack of motivation
and every word is about one situation
even when it’s not about that situation
I can feel my heartbeat slowing down
like a dimming light, or dying star
absence of caring brings self destructive tendencies
of which can kill a man
proof that I’m chasing life while seeking death
without reason, driving off the edge
life really isn’t so black and white
when I write my emotions, they’re feelings out and gone
I have a connection with the person I’ve always had a connection with
I have family, some I call my friends
even the ones I haven’t met yet
I devote myself the best I can to them
and when I can’t, I hope they understand
my heart still beats with their love

Great picture
Is that chernobyl?
Funny I was only looking at a
programme on that last week
What happens when humans leave nature alone to get on with it

I'm not sure if the pic is from that. Might be 😕
That story is a scary one for sure though.

"trapped in nowhere land

Again: feelings laid bare... unfiltered... raw... like only you can!

I always feel an itch to write my emotions. Even before this site I would write my feelings. It's nice to share them with others that get them 😁

This piece is achingly beautiful. 💓
You can feel the depth of your words, and the meaning which lay open.
Take care of you, my friend.
Everything else will fall into place.

I hope everything does fall in place. It's hard to want to do too much at once. Hopefully my true friends want to stick around through all my bs.

No worries, I always tell you when you are being an ass, and then move forward;)
Your true friends, will always stick by you. If they don't...then you don't need them anyways, right?
My circle of trust, definitely has gotten smaller throughout the years, and I am ok with that.

I'm so glad you enjoyed 😁
We can all move forward from nowhere, but unfortunately, sometimes that means leaving others behind.

Hopefully my friends will be. Life or online, it's hard to keep up with friendships. But yes, we all need to be true to ourselves.

My thought is...if you're true to you and your friends aren't still there...they're not really a friend. Perhaps I should have said your Friends. :)

Well expressed thoughts and a very frustrating place to be, yet loved ones remain after it all comes together again. Thanks for a great read...

It is a frustrating place to be. And hard to get out of when trying to do too much.
So glad you could enjoy 😁
