Poetry

I am

Advertisements

Here breathing in oxygen I need

Oh how I crave energy to get up but

My lack of sleep has kept me at the limits of not enough today or yesterday.

Oh how I drive to just be one with myself to feel connected to all that I am again.

I want to be in my body, but I feel like grasping at the things around me, searching for more than I know, and hoping to find everything I need.

Such a battle I am in, and maybe today I will feel the hope of knowing I won’t be stuck like this forever.
