Im staring at the ceiling wondering when this time will pass, English Image Poetry, Best English Poetry


Im staring at the ceiling
wondering when this time will pass 


Will I be like this forever
Is it something I’ll surpass 

And I can’t repress this feeling 
like I’ll melt into the floor 

That nothing really matters 
or that I matter anymore 

My eyes are rolling backward
back back inside my head 

My heart is racing forward and my brain feels worse than dead 
I pray to God it’s over 

that somehow this pain will end 
That someone will understand me 
that someone will be my friend 

Help me I’m drowning in my lone own thoughts 
They’ve commandeered my ship and they’ve thrown me overboard 

Help me I’m drowning in my lone own thoughts 
I gave myself upon them and now this is my reward 

I’m drowning- eeeh
