Empty and Lost

Posted on by Baffy Basics

Lately, I have been considering

what really makes me happy

but I do not have an answer.

I feel empty and lost

because I don’t have dreams.

When I was in high school,

when I should have been

discovering myself

and deciding what I want

to do with the rest of my life

all I wanted to do was die.

Now I’m at the point

where the light at the end

of the tunnel is real,

but I don’t know

what I want there to be

waiting for me at the end.

I’m lost and I’m scared

and I’m reverting back to my old tendencies.

I’d rather put an end to it all

than face the future that I don’t know;

the future that I didn’t create.

Consumed

Posted on by Baffy Basics

Well, it happened. It has finally won.

The darkness that I have worked

so hard to fend off over the years

has finally consumed me.

All the smiles you gave me

that shone a light to frighten them off

are now ancient history.

I know there will never be another

time a look from you will make me happy

because I know.

I know that you don’t think I’m special

and that I’m not good enough.

I may go through the same motions as her

but you will never love me.

That thought has forever darkened my soul

and I am just a hollow shell

that the darkness has filled.

I won’t bother struggling anymore

since I know there isn’t a happy ending

waiting for me on the other side anymore.

It has won and I’ll never be the same.

 

I’ve Given Up

Posted on by Baffy Basics

I’ve given up on what I really wanted
And now I feel so empty.
It’s like I’ve lost a part of me.
I am internally haunted.
I’ve given up all my hope.
I will no longer be trying.
I need to stop my crying
I need to learn to cope.
I’ve given up my heart.
All I feel is it’s empty hole.
I feel like I’ve lost my soul
Yet I’m barely falling a part.
I’ve given up on love.
Alone, I’m meant to be.
There is no one for me.
There’s no such thing as truelove.
