Drift

Like leaves in autumn

I’m fallen, Brown and dry

There is no life left in me

Can’t see green

Colorless is the painting of my life

Clueless

Need you more than ever

Detached

Thought I could make it on my own

Grounded and tossed by the wind

With no direction

It doesn’t make any sense

Conversation with you always ends up in tears

Maybe it’s me

Maybe it’s fine

Cos I prayed and believe

For you to pick me up and mend me

Piles of questions left unanswered

Files unopened

Behind closed doors I’m losing my mind

Feels like you are playing mind games with me

Hit me with all my wrongs if that’s what it takes

I admit to my mistakes

but your silence…. I can’t bear

Please don’t say I’m d one unable to hear

Staring blankly into the open space

Lost in thoughts

is nothing compared to the emptiness I feel within

I’m a mess

Higgledy-piggledy

This is no hogwash

Suicide is not an option

fill the vacuum within

Can’t be away from you I need you

To fix me.
