Poem: White Noise

White Noise by Scott Barnes
-=-=-=-=-=-

I'm awake, I don't think I ever slept,
My mind and heart racing, thinking too much,
Keenly aware of the damage, the hurt,
My heart bleeding in a place I can't touch.

Forgetting is the hardest part tonight,
Ignoring the pain is an impossible dream,
I can't even dream, still awake and alone,
Losing my mind and my soul, so it seems.

Sobbing with frustration, anger, sadness,
I can barely breathe through the tears,
These waking nightmares keep torturing me,
My demons formed out of pains and fears.

I wish my mind could be put to rest,
You know my heart has been put to the test.

Thoughts, fears, hopes, tears, losing my poise,
Thoughts, fears, hopes, tears, in the white noise.
