P.T.S.D

poem by: Fadrian Bartley
Written on Feb 05, 2018

I follow the footsteps of worries
And it lead me to a place where my 
Cries became unrecognizable,

A shallow hall 
Where my concerns echoes around my ears
I shave my hair to the base of skull

And cut myself to know if I am real,
My energy was my enemy 
From elusive sleep gone in the night

And for that I stray helplessly 
Through the dark dessert of mental struggles
At the end I fought back helplessly to return
I tried and live

PTSD fucking sucks right? I still keep a safety net under my pillow. This brought a tear to my eye.
