Faith Turnage Mar 2017
I do not know why I'm writing now
But the words run off the screen in a blur
the voices, disturbed
silence for a moment as I own them and make them immortal
a portal, these words are my version of an excursion through my psyche
I'm a bit dizzy, mind busy, my eyes dilating
as my lungs are deflating and filling with rain
the thunder is in my brain and the flowers that grow up
we're all insane, it's a shame
thoughts of somewhere else, in a book somewhere on a dusty shelf
that we visit from time to time to remind us of who we were.
Faith Turnage Mar 2017
running through reality
time stops
the world moves
my hands are not mine
no more me than you
five seconds
an eternity
my mind is behind and
**I do not exist
Faith Turnage Mar 2017
it is too late for sleep
and it is too late to be awake
surrounded by thoughts
that overheat my skin
and pull at my bones

for what?

— The End —
