Empty

by Kayla - Pisces

Endless thoughts churning through my head that never seem to be appeased,
Like the angry waters of so many relentless seas.
Full of opinions and emotion,
Yet I feel empty, lost and sinking in my deep and utter devotion.
These illusions I have created, as bleak as they may seem,
Lift me from reality and drop me in someone else's dream.
Still constantly followed by a dense and suffocating fog,
Like a prisoner struggling to find my own softly spoken dialog.
I find myself trying to break free,
I want the world, no I want ME to see me.
Instead I stay confined, confined to the lifeless existence,
It is so hard, so insufferably hard, struggling against all of this resistance.
And so I ask, What is the purpose of this life that I claim?
Yet no answer comes so it is here that I must remain.
