The Pain Inside of Me

by schmetterling   May 7, 2013


The way the pain inside of me is the only thing telling me that I'm alive.
I can't figure out why I'm so numb, or why I get deeper and deeper into this emotional cycle.
One second I'm on top of the world, I'm happy like nothing can touch me.
The next I've fallen hard- into the crevices of life. I can't get out and I'm being physically smashed farther into them.
I am consumed by all the doubt in my mind, it keeps me from thinking straight.
Maybe I feel so dead inside because of me myself- not others.
Maybe I am the reason for all the coldness inside of me.
