the pit

edited August 2004 in Poetry, Prose, Music & Art
waking up empty
with that pit in your belly
and the tears in your eyes
was it just a dream?
or is it just your life?
you get up and do
the things you have to do
your heart is racing
but you're moving slow
you smile, but it doesn't reach
your belly
your eyes
or your heart
and you wish for more sleep
even though you know
it will be time to wake up
with the pit in your belly
once again
You ask me to enter
But then You make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what You got
When all You've got is hurt
----
Underneath this smile lies everything
All my hopes and anger, pride and shame

    well that feeling of it coming before you go to bed is one I know even more than the other one violet, you just have to let it sink in, and don't let it get you too down.

    try and make the feeling you have now change and grow into something else inside if you can.

    goodluck and goodnight

  • I like this one a lot. I completely understand it. Except the pit just comes at randoms times for me. I never know when to expect it.
