Lost in Words

September 18, 2018


I write and write and write and write.

My hand begs for rest.

No more ink—blood shall be my ink.

my body shattering with every single word?, Is this a curse

Every second, weeks, months, years—can I handle it?

My soul begs to wander in the never-ending realm of the dead.


Am I alive or dreaming?

No... I’m lost in this cycle of writing words I don’t recognize,

Thoughts that aren’t mine, feelings I’ve never felt,

Time wasted on a journal that confines me.

I can’t breathe, I can’t eat, I’m angry.

I want to escape, but where would I go? What would I do?


I have no friends, no family, no name. What am I?

I can’t talk, only think about how others would feel.

Am I different from the others? Are we the same?

Have i escaped? Was I left behind?


Who am I? My soul questions me every day,

A repeated question, never-ending curiosity.

Is it my soul or my delusions? What is the word delusion?

I’m losing my memories, every second.

What is a word? What is what? What is "is"?

I don’t know anything, as if someone’s manipulating my body.

Am I a doll? What is this place? What is this world?


What am I? A monster? I don’t know.

I can’t— I don’t know.

I think and think and think.

I can’t move my body.

Please, I ask for help. Anyone, lend me a hand out of this abyss.


Dear reader, who am I? Who are you?
