Lost

poem by: D'Vina Dietrich
Written on Nov 08, 2020

Sitting alone in the dark
Staring at the same spots
Lost in these thoughts 
Hoping to feel a spark

Remembering all the pain
Letting it take over
Dragging me even lower
How can i maintain?

I think about the kids
Their smiles, laughs, love.
Shouldn't that raise me above?
Make me want to live?

They are that string
Thats holding me here
It snapping is my fear
And those thoughts sting

I'm not giving up 
I hate feeling like this
Why can't I have bliss?
My mind is just corrupt.
