Staring at my hands
As the lines are growing deeper
Thoughts with no direction
Have no end
Lack of focus
As a hollowing feeling grows
Memories of what has been
Are now just poorly backlit images
Future is nonexistent
Seemingly stuck in this moment
A quickly increasing trend
No will to struggle
No desire to get free
Being pulled further down
Feeling this hole starting to close
Hand reaching out
Goes unseen
But is it really reaching for anything

It seemed as though you read my mind today..Struggling I am to get going..So much work to do..and I can’t seem to get it done..Thank you for the confrontation.
lol… you are I think you mean confirmation… Thanks as always for reading!
This is truth we all live so many times over and over
thanks Lady Day
Good job of showing the feeling of hopelessness. Was hoping the end turned around and was surprised it didn’t which made the poem that much better, unexpected!
Thanks Poetryroad! Thanks for reading.

PRIME EXAMPLE OF TRUE POETRY. WHERE THE WORDS ARE SO VIVID YOU CAN PICTURE IT IN YOUR MIND. IT DRAWS YOU IN.
Wow thank you so much Sharon. I really appreciate that.
