Vulnerability, Vultures and Vast Emptiness

This poem was inspired by the people in my life who always dump their emotions on me and move on with their life like usual

Vulnerability, Vultures and Vast Emptiness

I can feel themĀ 
Gnawing at my brainĀ 
Fighting for the spaceĀ 
Pulling me down the rabbit holeĀ 
Which is nothing but a dark mazeĀ 
Of sadness, anger and revengeĀ 
A maze where I am the scapegoat ;
The sacrificeĀ 
For them to escape their thoughts and emotionsĀ 
While I am stuckĀ 
Blindfolded, with no escape, no light and no hope
I feel myself going under like quicksandĀ 
With no one to pull me upĀ 
I sense myself hitting rock bottom while they float on cloud 9Ā 
While they enjoy and have fun,Ā 
I am sinking to the bottom of the oceanĀ 
Burdened by all their emotionĀ 
One day, when I reach the bottom,
I realize; it's all just an endless space of darkness
And however hard I try now,Ā 
There is no escape...

A real sense of suffocation here. There are some of us who will always be expected to listen, yet can never be heard ourselves. But we all have our own battles in life. They all deserve acknowledgment. I think you penned that well here. Poetry is a great way to get things heard. I hope you find comfort in writingĀ
