Self Loathing

Tonight
The voices are merciless
No escape
No way out
Just the constant chatter
Drowning in my ears
In my mind
Bitterness consumes me
I am obsolete
To everyone
But myself
Waves crash over me
Eroding my surface
Barriers are down
Defenses are weak
As they strike
Again
And again
Impossible to get up
Broken inside
Hopelessness trails down shattered porcelain
Ocean eyes with frothy white peaks
Swim with glassy words
Unsaid
Sacred hearts and precious minds
Turn their backs
As a soul is vanquished
Into nothing
The spirit bleeds
Swirls of color
Drain in wisps of black despair
Until
There Is
Nothing
Left
