Poetry

Trying to

Shake this feeling

The one I can’t explain.

The one that haunts me day and night.

The one that makes me feel so uncertain

About everything insight.

The one that goes away but comes back even stronger.

Poetry

I don’t

Know how I’m functioning right now.

As my body and mind aren’t on the same level.

Half of me wants to keep going forward and the other half wants to stand still.

And wait for things to calm down

Before I move on and get things done but I know life won’t wait for me.

So I dry my tears and hold my head up high and do what feels right for me.

And not just for today but everyday.
