Suffocating
"Tell me now, where do we go?"
On the verge of tears, my breathing quickens as something hits me.
Like something is covering my heart, slowly suffocating it.
I'll die of asphyxiation as I fear that I can not breathe.
I panic. Panic attack.
If what I dream had come true, would I always feel like this?
You'd get away with murder though, because you would never know how addicted I am.
Addicted to disaster.
Addicted to rejection.
Addicted to dreaming.
Addicted to you.
I can't fight it.
No more winning.
Just thinking and falling. Spiralling down as my breath returns to me and fills my lungs once more.
It's bittersweet and the breath of life tastes sour within my mouth.
Tearing out my heart, pouring out my heart upon this page.
Get out.
Out of my head.

It seems we have just enough religion for us to hate but not enough for us to love each other

"My mind is a world in itself, which I have peopled with my own creatures and creations."
Maybe its cos you deal with the same sorta content?...
Ah well... I like the style though... I think this piece of poetry was more mature though... Seemed more honest... Well done though
