Day Dream 2A Poem by Dante ThomasContinuing my little series
The beating of war drums in my head
Bedside demons gnawing at my flesh Anxiety fueled dreams of things left unsaid Toxic friendships with the shadows in my room A depressive stranglehold around my mind Octopus tentacles dragging me deeper into a rocky crevasse Awakened before it can feed on my fragile mind and body Sunlight seeping through my shades burning a hole in my eye Water bottles and laundry scattered on the floor No energy or willingness to clean Black circles have become permanent make up I don’t mind my reflection in the mirror I do wish you would be here Red eyes Foggy mind Oily hair Unwashed clothing …..I’m stuck in my own eternal self loathing © 2020 Dante Thomas |
