Confraction

[u/turquoiseturttle]

I am rot and decay,
Every day all the same.
When last I felt sane,
I cannot proclaim.

What’s left of my mind,
All is in disarray.
A jumbled confusion
Where once was beautiful music.

A soul lacking passion,
Drab, wasteful, repetitive actions.
Regrets are a mansion,
Hope far fled, fragile features fractured

Action, inaction, dissatisfaction, distractions.
Stagnation, self hatred, silent mutilating flagellation.
A barren abyss chasing everlasting bliss.
Future once blinding, now endlessly winding.

Concrete below, craving above.
Time slowly slipping, slugging along.
Wistful glances, dreaming morningstar dances.
Light and despair, two feelings shared.

Double infraction, one foot in the casket.
Left outwaiting that which I cannot abandon.
Sympathy for souls not of my own.
Suffering must not be begotten alone.

This is very good, I really like the fourth stanza but all are very good. You have managed to make me feel emotions. Congratulations.
