Grip Is Slipping
This grip is slipping
The emptiness of oblivion
Layer after layer
Reveals nothing worthy
Life is beeping
An alarm that never wakes me
Obedience is lacking
Sticking to the stain on the mattress
Judgement swerving on thin ice
Cracks appear often
Nothing clever about drowning
Head keeps bobbing
It’s how I get through
The identity of a dismantled soul
Endless agony has no off switch
Breathing is becoming banality
The emptiness of oblivion
Layer after layer
Reveals nothing worthy
Life is beeping
An alarm that never wakes me
Obedience is lacking
Sticking to the stain on the mattress
Judgement swerving on thin ice
Cracks appear often
Nothing clever about drowning
Head keeps bobbing
It’s how I get through
The identity of a dismantled soul
Endless agony has no off switch
Breathing is becoming banality

dearest poet I've just come through a very deep depression
it's very painful a lot of people don't know that
you've expressed so brilliantly this feeling
sadly I can't even usually push myself to write when I'm like that...
hugs on a great write ❤
