Patiently impatient
Pacing back and forth
Sneakers tapping the pavement
Silent knock on the door
Swollen lips
Bit down to bloody bits
Finger tips
Calloused from lack of quit
Reaching for water
Driven by madness
Preventable thirst
Alone surround by it
They don’t know
Never will
This secret, this pill
I can’t swallow
beyond the hill
Drowning alone
Fully dry
Wondering
Should I try?
Cycling back to the start
A familiar post
Same inconsistencies
Always a generous host
Repeat on replay
Replay yet another day
Clawing at the stay
Succumbing in a humble way
Losing keys never lost
Key to it all
Silent since the frost
Sun melting rays
Intimidating the unknown
It questions
Even it’s own
Darkness fights
To claim
Everything unknown
Begins to know it’s name
Sense makes no sense
Logic doesn’t apply
Suddenly it’s ok
It’s ok to not know why.
