Poems
May 2015
Sleeping in dark corners
Sleeping in dark corners
Away from scary light
Holds me in control zone
In the middle of the night
I'll never find the answer
In my twisted sea of hate
I've burnt all my books
No more pages to turn
Pebbles are lizards
And trees are snakes
I can see now
What it takes
I'm hiding from myself
Don't where to look
No net to save
Acrobats do your worst
I'm a prisoner of my mind
Trapped inside my maize
Can only see my cells
Floating all around
Kick it up and up
Open my shut down door
Break it down and out
Let me see what's right
It won't destroy my truth
It'll make my light bright
Show this side of the moon
I want to be all but me
Thanks for cows over the moon
And lips that might see
A little sugar in my drink
And great gulps of life
Yes I can see now
What's in my brain
I've been too long
Juggling with my pain.
