Writing Prompt

In the fog, I wander, dazed and blind,

A maze of thoughts tangling in my mind,

Each step a guess, each turn a prayer,

In a world that’s spinning, I’m lost somewhere.

Questions rise like smoke in the air,

Swirling around, pulling me everywhere.

Answers hide like shadows in the night,

Flickering out just before I find the light.

The days stretch long, the nights are cold,

And dou...

I am watching myself sleep

I am feeling the sheets shift

As I fall in my dreams

As I slip in the street

In front of a crowd

That laughs in surround

Like music in a lift

Descending

Never ending but maybe not

If I stop all my misbehaving

And keep a list of myself

And my parts as well

I could be lighter

And get caught in the wind

Or the backdraft

Of a shutting door

Followed by a voice

‘Say no mo...

I’ve got an ai generated face

There’s so many errors I can place

My brain is rusting, gears barely move

I can’t tap into humanity’s groove

I got oil in my body, spilling out my throat

I got pain in my soul, so I’m building a moat

Black oil sea, gates painted hateful red,

I’m set in the crumbling castle inside my head

The castle walls are covered in decaying flesh

Bodies still moving, how t...

I’ve been lied to all my life

I feel numb to it now

My icy glass skin

Easily shattered to the ground

My words pouring out

Into a void no one can hear

Over all the noise

I shed tears piercing my eyes

Yet I’m still intact

I wish I could go back

I’ve been uncertain for so long

I was wrong about this

Who am I?

Did I ever even know who I was….

Maybe existence is never meant to be fun....

I’m confused,

And I’m mad,

I feel like I’m being lied to,

But I have no proof.

The line between truth,

And make believe,

Is thinning,

Becoming blurry....

Absense of light

No end in sight

This grip you think you have on me

Tightness of breath

Thinking that it’s death

If this is true just let it be

Hallway of corruption

Or what is seems to be

This prison that resemble free

Transcend from above

Cuz you’re deprived of

That trail of fear that follows thee

One day,

One day,

You’ll see the last of me

Relentless sense of passion

Just waiting to str...

Beautiful teacher, wonderful instructor

I pray you return to work seamlessly

Composed like a seasoned conductor

Directing melodic phonics effortlessly

Then notice the weight being removed

From your tired shoulders and admire

The strength that remains within them

when the world went quiet,

my thoughts went loud,

sleepless nights of nightmares in the silence,

all my walls could hear were echoes of my screams,

at midnight i finally woke to find myself again,

i searched every inch of skin in my body,

trying to find a solution to the loudness,

but you can’t find one if the one creating it,

is you,

and your mouth....

It started with a mist

I blew and blew but

It was only water

It couldn't hurt me.

It grew heavier still

But I waved it away

If I could see through

Then I would survive.

Through the months,

The fog hung over my brain

Like a thick weighted blanket

Trapping my thoughts

But I was functioning

I didn't need help,

I didn't need help,

I wouldn't need help.

They tried to help

But I told them I was okay...
