Not Anymore! ! Poem by Becky Ginn

Black creeps down my face, seeping from my eyes,
Red falls to the floor,
Night rages down, I have no direction anymore,
Iv'e given up once again,
Back on this long winding road, that seems to never end.

tears sting my eyes, I'm sick of all the lies.
Where do I go? What do I do?

Pushing harder now, I don't feel the pain.
I just stand by and watch, the world passes by.
I'm just surrounded in a mix of black and red.
Totally lost, alone again, feeling the familiar sting, a flood of emotion
I'm done crying, I'm done with tears, sick of fighting, freed of fears
Red swirls further, this is it, one more swipe, that's it for tonight.

The knot loosens, I feel lighter
Friends think I'm a fighter,
They don't realise how wrong they are.

As black races down my face,
Red floods to the floor,
I know I'm not me anymore.
