Sleep

A movie plays and I'm the star

The plot is not a ploy, I wrote the scripts

Chasing after the next scene

I stumbled, forcing deep breathing

If my eyes never opened, I'd never wake. //

Hope

I didn't know. You
Had so much, I couldn't
Know. Happiness is a
Mythical place. Happiness is

A mythical creature. It's

Your overdose, your

Death.

Wishful Thinking

I want to go to the sea. I

want to listen to its waves,

To the words that whisper:

'Live well enough to flee' //

Anxiety

Words jumble. Rearrange.

Coherent meanings, hard to miss.

Where there are no rules-

I wished never broke.

Promises run,

Across my tear-streaked face. //

Writer's Block

My mind is a ricochet.

A rocket with no clear direction.

My mind is in nuclear

- bursting forth.

Can't contain.

Overflowing.

Can't write. Coherently. Adhesively. //

Just Words

There are words in my head.

Words with meanings,

and words in phrases.

Words that form sentences,

and sentences with thoughts.

Thoughts with ideas,

and ideas with no words.

Words are juat words

- going anywhere but somewhere. //

Feelings

The rain lasted a moment

A deliberate downpour of angst and tears

When the storm has passed

The rainbow usually follows

- but the pavement still wet from its bearings.
