I wish I’d be sensible
To do what my mind says...
A comment here
A put down there...
I sit down to think of a happy poem
A poem of joy and delight...
Now
I lie here under the covers...
A cold, grey, lonely house
Upon a desolate hill top...
Dreaming of multiple outcomes
All of them end up the same...
I stepped in when I was young
Didn't mean to...
The demon whispers in my ear
"Run."...
I've walked around this circle
I've seen it...
The dripping of the leaky faucet
Steady rhythm...
I remember you
You were the one who smiled at me the other day...
I am trying to hide
Attempting the impossible...
