Poetic Soul

By Uglytruthis

It is human nature to want a place to belong. I long so much to feel accepted where I am. I strive so much to be something in others eyes when my eyes can not see worth. Trying to fill this empty void of lonely nothings. To be a something.

Desperation drive emptiness to the ends of the earth. Filled with desire to be loved. Finding comfort in the wrong places. These bleeding hearts do not feel. Do not let there guard down. This blistering desert blowing through me.

These words fall out in poetic alignment from silent lips. From a lost souls place of emptiness. He left me with nothing it seems sometimes….with void of anger and calamity. It boils beneath shaky hands. Lies behind chain linked fences.

Yet, in the midst of fitting in we are yet lost.  Pulled into the rebellious crowd, deeper and deeper I crawl. Hoping to fill the void of me. No peace is found. Alcohol and drugs only escalates the anxiety inside these bones.

Ever surrounded by a sea of dark face. I can’t run anymore, I can not hide within and without my own soul. I must face the mirror. I must face the silence of me. There is no better place to start, than to learn to accept yourself as you are. To find love and faith is to be free.

There comes a time when the world gets quiet and the only thing left is your own heart. So you’d better learn the sound of it. Otherwise you’ll never understand what it’s saying.”
