Amputated thoughts (NoPoo 58)
Hushed debate
Shame in the shadows
Amputated thoughts
Reason lies so far
Down the end
Of dark tunnel
Withered hand
Grappling
With a stick
To keep a sense
Of a balance
Watching the cracks
Wrapped
In the wreckage
Of a bleak world
Trigger points
Come and go
Tetering on an edge
Confusing
Dark days
Emotonless heart
Dead eyes
Not quite there
In existence
Sick of the decline
Deceived
By the whispers
Facing facts
Can no longer deny
The charcoal box
Shame in the shadows
Amputated thoughts
Reason lies so far
Down the end
Of dark tunnel
Withered hand
Grappling
With a stick
To keep a sense
Of a balance
Watching the cracks
Wrapped
In the wreckage
Of a bleak world
Trigger points
Come and go
Tetering on an edge
Confusing
Dark days
Emotonless heart
Dead eyes
Not quite there
In existence
Sick of the decline
Deceived
By the whispers
Facing facts
Can no longer deny
The charcoal box

Dark and poignant, C.
Yet, you capture the feel of depression that so crushes down upon, perfectly (like only you can) That feel, even the very best and supposed most 'normal' sods out here feel, at times. Depression /darkness is universal, just varying in it's degrees. You shine your light on it, and we can see that darkness clear and it's so recognizable. Well done, again, my lovely friend.
Your writing is inspiring in its honesty and connectivity.
