Mind on a Ride

The Disillusion of Distraction

Dawn approaches while crusted ashes consume my lashes

Incessant is the tear that shed the drear, dried in the night as the Sun consumes with light

Stuck, caught in this somber, a mind’s eye will wander

Trepid, the thought lingers as needles pinch at my fingers

Racing, chasing, raging – a heart caging

Air in despair, lungs grasping as I yank at my hair

Control begins slipping – falling, fleeting, gripping

Time has no care and no one is aware

Intensity heightens as my chest continues to tighten

Ominous in this moment, thoughts reign down in this torment

Numb is the conclusion gained by this disillusion

sad poetry
