Backwards and forwards

Sometimes I get a little bit cynical

with all this critical

thinking.

 

My brain is spinning out of control

with the thought of

self-destruct-ion.

 

My music is my only savior from

this night that wants to

swallow me whole.

 

1,

2,

3 am and

I should be asleep

My heart is pounding in my stomach

My lungs are in my legs

Everything is backwards in my head.

 

-c.a.
