Forgotten
When we die,
We'll be forgotten,
But what can we say when
We're forgotten
While alive?
What am I to think
When I am invisible?
When I am cast aside?
When I am the problem?
Who is there to see me for me?
Does death then hold no meaning?
Is death even worth fearing?
Or is it rather embraced
As a means of escape
From those who
Don't care
At all?

Can I?
I know I'm not supposed to
But can I?
I know what I should do
But can I?
I know I want to
But can I?
I've waited for so long
But everytime it seemed right
It wasn't
Here I am again
Teetering on the edge
Of what I should do
And what I want to do
I know what I want to do
But can I?

Breathe
Thoughts racing fast
Heart beating
You can’t seem to find your mind
You close your eyes and hear the thumping beat
Thumping,racing, thinking could this be
Energies so strong you can’t sit still and breathe
Thoughts racing fast
Heart beating
You close your eyes and hear the thumping beat
Thumping faster, racing, thinking could this be
You tell yourself breathe...

Nightmare off 75
Anxious vibes keep me awake
I have these vivid dreams at night
They tell me you are not alright
It eats me alive that I cannot call tonight
Every second felt so real
The headlights and broken glass
Sharp breaths that sound like your last
The blood on your shirt and on my hands
The way they tried to pull me back
All I could see was your hand, a cracked screen, and glasses...

Grace and Favour
Grace and Favour
For all that a life that's truly led
provides the anxious soul with balm,
yet a gentle breeze, invisible and calm,
precedes the storm where the meek have fled.
In Summer's graceful darkling glides the hawk
in flight over burnished grain, 'till late
a final stoop unearths its prey: its fate
the slashing shadows where the killers stalk.
Though se...

Chronic
I have recently read
That pain is the hardest
Situation a human can
Try to explain.
If that’s so,
Is fear considered
To be pain?
Does pain have to
Be a broken bone?
A head ache?
A tight chest?
A burn?
Is pain not
The anxiety of waiting
For everything to fit?
Is pain not
The force of trying
to piece together
two completely different
puzzles to become one?
I can never...
