Challenge
Write about physical or emotional pain without using the word pain at all.
I Swear
I swear I'm not losing my mind
but I can feel myself dying
as the days pass through
this draining storm in my body
I swear I can't find help
because how can someone
understand that each day
is meaningless to me
and that all I do is sleep
I swear I'm running out of time
because the hourglass is almost empty
and I can't seem to care anymore
I swear I'll be dead soon
as I feel the time is ending
and all I can think of is nothing
while people seem unaware
that I won't even say goodbye
when I leave for my ride out of here.
