THOUGHTS

THOUGHTS


I withdraw into a shell of my own -
My shell of loneliness
Loneliness - my sole companion
Tears - my only solace.

Thoughts tear my soul apart -
Thoughts that hurt so much -
That none can soothe or take away.
Into oblivion wish I'd melt -
Where no pain would touch me -
Where no being could hurt me.

Could I be weary?
Could I be lost?
Lost, in the ocean of emotions?
Why do I fail to rise above emotions?
And live a life of deception?
Shallow life - bereft of all emotions -
Would I be happier then??
