i feel

too much, too little?

By BrenPublished 3 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

somedays i feel like a man of god

and others i’m the devil himself

the tales i tell to others

are not the ones i tell to myself

somedays i feel like i could probably fly

if i had wings i’d spread them and soar

sometimes i feel everything at once

and then i feel it some more

somedays i feel like taking a knife

and cutting everything in my way

somedays i just wanna slash, cut and hack

sometimes, but not today

somedays i feel the answers i seek

are just questions, riddles inversed

a majestic miasmic malodourous maze

backwards, forwards and reversed

somedays i feel nothing at all

in this void of my own creation

this design all mine that’s just fine

it's not meant to provide elation

somedays i feel like just giving up

it’s not a luxury i can afford

so in order to be the change i wanna see

i must pretend that i am not bored

somedays i feel it’s all for naught

and i question my value and my worth

these answers have deftly eluded me

yet they exist somewhere on earth
