Sit and Stare

By VagrantGypsy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I sit and stare into the mirror Just stare No expression whatsoever Blank My eyes give it all away Its always bothered me how they did that The hatred they posses is almost scary I never knew they were this dark Maybe I should turn a light on No, I'd rather sit here in the cold I just don't know what to do So confused Sick of writing the same words Over and over and over again Growing old Moving on is something I'll never do as the burn in my throat rises and I throw my pills away I am alone I can't suck the tears back any longer Just wish the dam inside me could break so that I can go back to where I used to live and Start again Written November 26th, 2001 © on Dec 08 2001 01:41 AM PST   18 • 0 • 10
