safe space

A Poem by hypochondrita

It caught me again

all the seductive whispers

fear has a soft voice, you know


 don’t go there, it’s for your own good

hope is all there’s left

you don’t want to lose that too

trust me on this

the truth cannot catch up to you


say you do succeed

turn fantasy into reality

reach your goals, reach your dreams

nothing is ever as it seems


what if you still feel the same

even when you “made it”

what then?

what will contain the pain?

I won’t be able to protect you anymore

you’ll have to face the fact

you’ve been the problem all along

it’s not about where you are or what you do

there just might not be a happy bone in you

I’m sorry to break the news this way

I had to make sure you stayed.
