Going under
I see a person in a dream
writing on some paper
crooked letters spelling out a story
written in verses
of outlets blood
outlets of words
mixed and jumbled
in a head of hazy clouds
unable to see
what could come tomorrow
stuck in the past
with wars long lost
and memories better left forgotten
lingering on scars and bruises
unable to love
do to hate
that fills a heart closed to all
that threaten to destroy
trapped in whirlwinds
of hatred and longing
sorrow and bliss
pushed this way and that way
by emotions taking over
I’m that person I see
struggling for help
struggling to be
I can’t wake up
I can’t get out of this dream
I’m trapped and going under
and no one can help me
no one can see
that is how I wanted to be
unseen and unnoticed
but now I need help
and no one is there
I’m reaching out
only to grab air
I’m going under
I’m going down
down, down, down…
