“Danger”

What thoughts are these that enter my mind?
To acknowledge them is to be kind,
Sleep to me is now a stranger,
For I find myself in danger.
I feel inside I lost my soul,
I am like a mass without any goal,
Where is the energy in my entity?
Lost is my self identity.
Am I becoming like the others?
People don’t care no one bothers.
Have I forgotten what it is to “be”?
Is this my life, is this “me”?
This snake of fear has gripped my brain,
I try to break free, my body I strain,
But I shall keep trying and not give in,
For giving up is an unforgivable sin.
I have struggled and I have won,
The snake is dead, my job is done,
And I have finally awoken,
I live once more, I have begun!

Beautiful poem. Liked the feelings in it immensely.

Shall I write what I felt after reading this poem, really,
You brought about this situation by thinking unnecessarily,
And now you have found the solution by thinking what was necessary,
You will find what I am writing is confusing, but only momentarily.

great read

Lost is my self identity.

Is this my life, is this “me”?
