You're Silken Words Felled Me

You're Silken Words Felled Me

💔

You're silken words felled me
My mouth now
Full of steel wool
Feeling such the fool
Oh you brought me to my knees
I beg of you
Please stop the hurt
Please please please
Your games
My raging storms
Churning churning churn
What lesson have you come
To teach me
From my suffering
What shall I learn
My heart beneath the ground
Filled with worms
Your voice
Full of scorn
I turn away
To you I no longer pray
I pray above
To heaven please hear me
I no longer wish
For you to be near
What you call love dear
Fills me with fear 
So this bag of bones
Out the back door
Taking back my heart
For you it's no longer
Your home

But then I look for the Buddhist and Bam!  Same problem, there's nothing there. I must confess enjoying my nonexistent self today, uh oh, that could mean trouble. Now that I have realized my life is just a dream am wondering what comes next, or if there is a "next." Maybe I will keep looking a little more to be sure no self is to be found. The way things are going I might end up a Buddhist. Now not only can I not find myself, I can't find anyone else either.  I close ...
