Poems
Mar 2015
When it's late
You know what plagues me at night
Thoughts
Thoughts and the ever living darkness the brings them from the parts of my brain associated with stress
I however am not an insomniac
Like Good dreams I think deep before my slumber
And in that thinking what is to come of me occurs
Even with thoughts as rich as fresh soil nurturing a budding flower
I swirl into disbelief of what is to come of me
Will I win
Should I do
Will I not
Yes I must
Overlapping in a heart racing pace
It bothers me
I want to sleep
I have things to do
See while my mind stretches itself into far far reaches
My body must suffer
My body must suffer even when my mind isn't being stretched
I know it could be worse
And I'm grateful it's only here
Another thought
This endless loop
I'm in pain
Still I need more from my body
Achy knees whistling lungs
I truly don't have it worse as I hastily type these words of fear confusion and frustration
It can bring me to the brink of tears
Like my friends
How blissfully ignorant some of them may be wether they may be privileged lucky or just plain stupid I have succumb to the poor man's set backs
Tossing and turning
YouTube to facebook
What if I never make it
I don't know the outcome
I'm just afraid to move
And moving because if I stay still the fear of not moving will consume me in a manner most unpleasant
Oh the bump I must overcome to become a stronger withered man
A husk if I may
I no longer taste the air air or bare the fruit of knowledge
I've lost the battle
I do not crave knowledge
And knowing is half the battle
The battle I play in my mind
Which tonight at this time will be forever and reoccurring
Sleepless thought
