As I sit within the depths...
Of my soul and my spirit...
Trying to shake the longing...
That at times leaves me feeling a sadness...
Which attempts to overwhelm me
I am snarling...
Deep within my mind
As I find myself held tightly...
By contemplation's grip...
Which isn't choking the life out of me...
But has me locked within the thoughts...
That are trying to torment me
With memories of all I've ever lost...
And the times... when I have felt so alone...
That I felt as if...I was fading into nonexistence
But I know that I exist...
As I can feel myself living...
Within the intensity of these inner struggles!!!
