Poems

Blackness, only blackness, dark  empty  cold  void of all hope and promise endless unrelenting  space  never fill it scream as loud as you like it’s still  silence  wretched  run yourself out haven’t even moved inch or mile or eternity all one  all gone  how do you measure despair can’t get out of a prison with no walls  no limits  nowhere else to go  trapped  immortal if you’re the only thing in the universe you’re the only thing that matters  but matters to who  it doesn’t matter loneliness isn’t fatal though you  sometimes  wish it were how do you breathe your last when there’s no air and if I  scream  in the darkness but there’s no-one there to hear me does my mind makes a sound as it  splinters  moving so fast I might be standing still am I crazy pretending to be sane or the other way around and who decides which is which

  when  I’m  asleep  I  see  perfect  truth,  perfect  darkness,  and  with  my  first  waking  breath  I  try  to  forget.
