Cycles

A Poem by Hart123
"

A description of the human condition of repetition, and how we do so negatively.

"
Get up. Struggle to stay up
Walk. Struggle to stay moving
Lie down. Struggle to stay asleep
Think of constructive criticism. Stay silent
Think of meaningless fluff to keep the peace. Speak loud and clear
Have strong emotions. Bury them under more self loathing
See someone else with strong emotions. Go out of your way to help them
Feeling lonely. lock yourself away
Given an opportunity to escape. Stay locked away
Open doors. Close them
Burned bridges. Try to rebuild them, even though no one wants to cross. 
Hopes. Gone. 
"Are you okay?" 
"Ye! I'm great!" 
Repeat. ----
