You

Sanity Lost

By The Girl in GreyPublished 6 years ago 1 min read
Written 9/1/2018

My weekends have always been quiet

Ever since I was young girl

Left in solitude inside a big empty room

With only a few options

I could sit here and let the silence drive me wild

Or I could fill the space with all the things that are being screamed at me right now

So I chose music

Movement

Paper and ink

Still and moving life images

I chose anything that would help me fade from my own self

While getting all that much closer to me

So much creation

No sense of direction

No completed projects

No coherent thoughts

No mind maps

No compass

No clue of what I’m doing

And I long for you now that I’ve known love

Though that love was never mine to feel

I waited so long for you

Just to find out you were the wrong piece

And now I’m back in this big empty space

Waiting

Creating

Screaming

Crying

Losing my fucking mind

All because of you

heartbreak
