Evolving Emotions: Sadness- Poetry

Anywhere

Most days I sit and think

about how I don’t want to be here

nor there

or anywhere.

Neither heaven

nor hell,

earth,

limbo,

a place beyond,

somewhere I can’t get back from,

a plane betwixt time and space,

a void of blank white walls,

a pit of darkness found

nowhere.

My lungs cave in

like they’ll shrivel and fall

caught by my ribs

clinging.

Ambivalence arrives

as tired tears

drop

Heavy limbs

weighed down

at the realization

that nowhere is impossible.

Inside me is nothing

and I cannot go there

so I must stay

until my days have passed

sitting and thinking

of a place neither here

nor there

or anywhere.
