PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Stuck in this eternal abyss called my mind

Searching for something I just may not find

Reaching for stars I cannot quite grab

Spiraling thoughts wrap me up in a bind.



I take a deep breath to release what I can’t see

To free myself from what I cannot flee

From the demons inside me that try to take over

With my conscience I struggle, I fight, and I plea.



This compulsion, paranoia, and obsession

Makes me look at even myself in repulsion, a recession

I get so caught up that my eyes are teary and crossed

So I take a brief moment to breathe a fresh breath in.



And just like that…

My gears get set back

to square one;

I find myself back to smiling and having fun.
