Disconnected
Burning on the inside
pain at merely existing
each breath leaves
a path of fire though my veins.
Tethered to the Earth
looking up at the stars
wishing I was among them
free from my broken form.
Madness, depression, maniac
riding on this roller coaster
I vomit the ride twisting my insides
trying to fight these feelings I fail.
Disconnected I hide from the world
thinking it's only for the beautiful people
not for the likes of me
demented, marred and scarred.
I know I will prevail
this is how I feel today
tomorrow is a new day
to embrace who I am broken or not.

to feel battered & broken
with a heart no longer open
is nothing new to this Earth
its what the struggle is worth
& struggle we must
through every fight & every fuss
because at the end of the stormy day
the sun will come back shining our way....

Lost souls always hold the most precious wisdom. You clearly are beautiful, or you could not write this.
