Lethargy

Lethargy

A Story by Kathryn Smith

Lethargy got a hold of me

And I don't know how to shake it




I've got Itchy feet for a change of scene

Do anything to escape it






Get Up


Get Up


Pressure

Pressure


Run away as fast as you can go








My dear furry;


I hate my sourness.


I want to sprint away.


But I am dead.


Stuck


4 walls enclosing around me


I want to live.


Live. Love. Live. Love. Live. Love. Die.


Smash plates on the floor.


I've gone mad.


She's gone mad.


He's gone mad.


We've all gone mad.


I pound on the door.


I've had enough.


Loneliness kills a girl.


Failure breaks a girl.


But


Ambition and anger?


That can fuel a girl.


I want to rip you apart.


Show you my hurt.  




Kicking and Screaming 


I'll shoot out free


Fly to the sky


A wild girl at heart


I need a home


I was a child of the forest


Deep in the night I ran


mud on my face


pebbles their sharpness cut my feet


but little me didn't care


Now as a wild woman


I am a beast of furry


I'm piece of work


the woods were cut down


I am tired, sleepy art



Some can see me


Some cannot


Just leave me alone


A monster I've become


There was no love here


No love there


There was no love for me anywhere





No positivity


No respect


I only make them yell


Is it all my fault?


I ruin everything


My hopes


My plans


I thought my heart was at its best




If you finally let me be


I will conquer my dreams


I don't need your nagging


Negativity and pride



Exhaustion


I'm dying


Must


Keep going


Storming


I cant breathe


Suffocation


but I cant give up


Numb I am


Numbing was he


Why cant anything good come to be?


I know I'm lucky








What am I to do?


When lethargy murdering me?
