Trapped In A Hollow Poem by Zinger Wingz

Trapped In A Hollow

Rating: 5.0


Trust...
They'll start on the outside
And end on the outside.
Impenetrable walls of abstract
Your inside exists to no one to be exact.
Enemy...
I hate myself for hating myself.
So pathetic, I hung my confidence far up on a high shelf.
Ignorance...
So bitter, you hated everything that had a sense of positivity.
So dark, you nearly died from all your negativity.
Feeling...
When you let your emotions consume your mind,
You become oblivious, you become blind.
Tolerance...
Slit...Cut...Slaughter.
I'm drawn to the pain like an addict.
So much comfort it feels so familiar,
So familiar it's hard to quit.
It's better to hurt than to hurt another.
Why be harmed when you can reap the joys of harming yourself without a bother?
Faith...
You lived like a feather,
Falling and breaking through dimensions
Hoping to find solid ground to bring you back together
And to hopefully free yourself from all your retentions.
Comfort...
Do not be flattered.
I am not healed, I am not altered.
My brain cells are still dying.
I only come out because sometimes hiding in my thoughts becomes suffocating.
Fear...
All I'm asking for is a heads-up.
I could never actually open myself up
Because I'm dreadfully afraid of your kind
Since all you do is criticize and mock my mind.
Patience...
I gave up on everything, just here waiting for the afterlife.
No ambitions, no flare, I could never be another's wife.
Can't wait, ready to go but can never pick up the knife.
Taking my time, playing this game like it isn't real life.
Downplay...
Vigilant individual, you've become so woke
But still you treat yourself like a joke.
You have the amazing propensity to be exceptional But how can you if you don't believe in your own potential?
