Alone on the playground,
counting minutes.
Too much time alone with yourself,
to wonder why you even try.

it is not
'us versus them'
or
'you versus me'
it is us against the problem
which you fail to see.

Life is flourishing. My tears have worked hard, to rejuvenate this life.
For the first time in years, I feel like myself again.

The air fermented and aged
familiar darkness
the futile anger from being caged
light brings no greater starkness

You walk on broken legs
You taught me to fight with broken arms
Because you told me
"The world doesn't care if your hurting"
We have to make it care.

Happiness has become expensive.
Counting pennies like a child.
