A lost soul

Description: I tried separating this the best I could as fiction press never fixed their spacing when you actually hit "space bar" to separate your lines. I hope you all enjoy.

This was originally made in 2011.
-------------------------------------------------------------

I have too many imperfections

Too many even for you to see

Emotions swim in my chaos of thoughts

While scars of sadness seep


Tearing at myself

Attempting to get to the core

To my own heart where

Love lacks the most


The everyday feelings I miss

Maybe I can't feel

Tied to to a track of isolation

That leads to the abyss


The every day normal sleep I miss

I have become a vampire

Looking to the moon

Where emotions of emptiness become familiar


No one will see who I am

The world will always be too busy

Too far down to reach for help

The mind enveloped in the body of shadows


Invisible is the body

Observing the pain and the joy

The colors of humanity are conveyed

Seems foreign from far away land


This land is across a sea

Stormy waters that many have fallen in

Afraid to be pushed down and drown

To put myself in misery for being awkward


In the winter snow are tears

Frozen and face in deep hue of blue

Will I sleep myself away

For possibly an eternity or two


Maybe next time there will be new light

Or in this dream should I stay

Never to wake up another day

To leave everything on its own path
