I woke up cold this morning
shaking
aching
completely alone
my blanket thrown off my bed from a terrible nightmare
I laid with my eyes open
staring blankly ahead
my arms wrapped around my knees holding them to my chest for warmth
still
motionless
silent

YET ON THE INSIDE WAS A MILLION THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS
LOUDER THAN A HURRICANE RIPPING OFF THE CEILING
MY ISOLATION HAD BECOME MY CONDEMNATION
THE NIGHTMARE WAS REOCCURRING
WITH WORRIES FLURRYING
MEMORIES SCURRYING
SINS WERE FLIRTING
SONGS OF HURTING
PAIN AVERTING
FOR WANT OF RATIONAL THOUGHT MY MIND WAS DIVERTING!
SO EXTREMELY......... disturbing.

I woke up

cold
this very morning
safe in silence
but with a warning

shaking
aching
completely alone.

We are never truly free until we overcome the fears that bind us to this world

No, not completely alone. In the room, perhaps though I don't think so. in the world, no there are others with the same awakenings.

nice work

welcome to the site

May you find peace within...
