Please Just Let Me Fade?

My eyes burn and blur

They have for a while now

Insomniac, depressive, shut-in

And I wonder how

I go on knowing nothing

Anxiety at its worst

Rising to the top

Until your bubbles burst

So let shadows cut through me

Split me down the middle

All of you cannot see

Who this person really is

Wish I could go to sleep

Wish I could one day live

My mind is numb from thinking

Stress seems pouring out

Hollow eyed expressions

I wonder how I still walk about

I yearn to be engulfed by black

Huddle in my covers

Slip through histories cracks

No turning back

I want to jump

I'm so afraid

My heart is pounding

And no one

Not a soul

Is running to my aid...

    To describe feelings think in terms of metaphor rather than the obvious statements. There is a flow to your words with speaks of you knowing some semblance of poetic structure and rhythm. This is worth more editing. Here is an example of your start, restated:

    Eyes, burn and blur

    so familiar now

    as is fleeting sleep

    who am I, who is he

    a shadowed soul there

    that night seems to be

    winning...

    you have, in my opinion, properly pointed out the subject. All issues evolve ending in the appropriate degree of evolution this is death. while love happens between human beings in a relationship, the affection they sense at first isn't the affection they'll sense for their mate over the direction of their bond. Its not lots that it fades or dies out as that is that it follows its organic direction in its evolution. each so often we meet on a similar time as strolling a course at the same time. each so often we meet at a crossroad each persons headed in a diverse direction. The era of a love affair is effected with the aid of whichever of those is the case. while 2 human beings come at the same time, they alter into one. this means that before that they have got been in basic terms a nil.5. If the two halfs are surely diverse. the affection passes. in the event that they are surely a similar, the affection could bypass on until considered one of them dies.

    It's not a poem, it's an emo whine.

    Try being objective and cut out every "my" and "I".
