Touch

I feel out of touch
Floating
Never able to touch the ground
Never able to get any higher
My sense of identity so distorted
I don’t remember the girl I used to be
Independent
Determined
Sure of herself
Complete
Now she’s lost in an abyss
Forever searching for more
Never finding enough
She had a taste of emotion
Now she’s always hungry
Never satisfied
She’s lost herself
No longer whole
Just a hollow shell
In search of something to fill it
Anything to fill it
Better than being empty
Deeper & deeper
Searching in every crevice & alley
Grasping at glimmers
Destroying the lights
Consuming them whole
Spitting them out
Not enough
The cycle continues
Leaving a trail of broken behind
Afraid to give up
Afraid to keep going
Uncertainty & indecision
No purpose
Just destruction in her wake
She floats alone
For eternity
Undeserving of mercy
