One Woman's Pain

I tire and hunger for rest from humanity. I've grown bitter due to constant heartache. Oft times I have wondered what kept me caring, functioning, or even motivated. Then I realized it has all been a means of escape. 

To what end?

What is the purpose of being? I do not see one, save it misery. I am exhausted by the high road; of being so damn objective and fair. 

I want t scream until my lings burst. I have come to another crossroad. 
Frankly I am disgusted with crossroads; this being the hundredth one. 
Once more I must choose a path, but either way it will no doubt end with disappointment. 

The creeping fear of a life without joy tends to soften my anger and deepen my sorrow. 
I feel as if my hardships have much more than scarred me. 

Honestly, does it matter one woman's pain?

Disappointment

Fever running through me
slowing me down
but speeding me up
giving me a chill
and setting me on fire

A frenzy surging about me
stopping my blood-flow
creating a stinging in my eyes
cleansing my heart
and breaking me apart

A silence in me
trying to be heard
boggling my memory
clouding my judgement

a sound alerts me
causing me to halt
in the tracks I'm stepping
kicking the soil in disappointment
