Suffering Alive

Life
for me
seems to be never ending waves
of complications
like an ocean
that refuses to flow easily

It feels
as if I'm drowning
while drifting
without anything of normalcy
to keep me afloat

I want to die
now
right now
because it would be easier
than waiting
for tomorrow's moment
to take me from me
once again

I imagine
the darkness
each time
time's hands
pull me under
and I feel whole
because it is only then
when I'm suffering alive
that death feels closer

Need to talk? I am here friend

Sad poem .

Thanks for the offer but I'm fine. It's just a poem and not a reflection of my personal well being.

Good to know, but had to be sure, to be sure. I get my angst out by writing and then feel like I have purged.

Great poem too. Look forward to more...

'The future's uncertain and the end is always near' lyrics roadhouse blues.

Like the poem mig25, you bring to light to what so many feel in the world. Regardless of who they are

Just listened to Roadhouse Blues and I love it!!!!

It is very good and speaks volumes to me atm

Your words have power.

Thank you!!!!
