I am quite volatile
unpredictable
emotion-wise
I can be ecstatic at times
and then go blank and despondent
I become silent

and hopelessness
wraps itself around
my not so small frame
and when it does
it is like a boa constrictor
squeezing hard enough
to rupture my blood pressure
hopelessness is merciless when it comes to me

but sometimes
I am hopelessness
upon myself do I become a boa constrictor
upon myself do I become merciless
this is when I think that no one
not a single soul
can come and save me
except for one
and that one person
is you
my sunshine

the chances of me vanishing are high
at times of doubt
those possibilities rise like a tsunami
extremely dangerous and fatal
when I think about things like this
those chances, possibilities, probabilities
they’re all ever so exalted
