A poem

By TestPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Some days I don't

Wanna give a fuck.

It's true

{

Every thoughtful hour

I have needs to be

Countered with

Apathy and

S l e e p for

At least an afternoon.

{

It slacks a little

Stress from your

Heart and raises the dagger in the

Brain out an inch

{

(

Or two.

{

I mean,

It's necessary to

Shut down from

Feeling in order

To stay level.

{

In fact it's crucial

To close blinds on

The world and forget

That hell is spinning

All around.

So when it's time to jump

Back into the fire

There is a fresh layer of

Skin to burn off.
