I sit alone at might in my Empty bed wondering. Where I went wrong with My Life? The ache of loss and desire Rise within me. Squeezing, breathless, My mind in chaos. What did I do to deserve this, My brain screams? This living hell. Was I too nice or too mean? Was I too … Continue reading LOST

The monotony of the day wars on and on From hour to hour, minute to minute, second to second, I stare at the computer screen, Will nothing happen?
