A dark day

 

Dizzy with the doubts of lost opportunity

My stomach swells, the nausea rises causes me to faint

 

I can taste the threat of disease on my tongue

And my head aches a dull thud, leaving me numb

 

Waiting for this phase to end, I dream of all my tomorrows

I know in my heart, that they will too fool me

 

But hope is the only virtue onto which I can pray

To seize this day, take the hours away and let me sleep

 

I kill too much time; I waste my days with laze

My body is still, but my mind a fountain of thought

 

I have plans, victories I wish to succeed but they do

Not commence til the new moon shines and I am at peace

 

A restless soul lurks beneath my skin, gnawing at my heart

Forcing me to question, all that I do not do

 

They judge and they curse my idle sack days

But I know myself that this is just a fleeting, passing phase.
