Powerless



I’m scared of myself.

Afraid of doing things,

that I cannot erase.

I put myself in trouble.

I harm myself,

but I can’t escape.

I’m not strong enough.

I’m powerless.



Everyday I cause myself more pain.

Everyday I cry.

I try to escape,

but I’m haunted by my shadow.

It won’t leave me alone.

I’m powerless to escape.

To escape myself.
