My Mind Is Slipping

by Velantra
My mind is slipping,
I can’t hold on,
I’m falling, something’s missing!
I don’t know where I am?
It is dark here yonder………

It is steep, hard rock,
There is nothing to hold on to,
I cannot go back, to sky’s so blue,
Where will I go, what will I do?
It is dark here yonder, scared, alone.

My mind is wondering,
My mind is chaotic, I am lost,
I walk through waters cold,
I fall over stones, sharp, bruised.

My mind is crying, pleading,
I need redemption,
I need to be free,
There is nowhere out…….

My mind is searching,
A tree, a river flowing,
Take me away from here!

My mind is bruised, scratched,
I’m bleeding from walking,
Shouting for someone to hear my cries.

My mind is slipping,
I can’t hold on,
I’m falling into a deep dark, hole…….
Let others and the author know if you liked it

Liked it alot?

My writing makes me feel better, I love to write, I never ever had any one believing that I have any talent what so ever to write. I must have written a million things in my mind and a million more, that i just deleted........... :-)
