untitled #6

a body filled with familiar dread

you might say my body is already dead

my head is said to be quite fretful

took moments of quietude for granted;

and now i’m constantly regretful

 

the restlessness of my emotions

address my state of mind

and the distressed thoughts run around my head like guerrilas

they know they are running out of time

my jittery heart runs rampant

like a broken clock

and my only wish is for all of this to stop

 

the apprehension creates a detonation

a complete eradication of my elation

because my body is filled with familiar dread

and my body feels like it’s already dead
