My head hurts
Its sickened by the crimes of life oozing out of every molecular structure around me
I sick respite
I seek solace
I wish for an end to all this constant worry and fear
I’m tired of being tired
I don’t even have the energy to stay awake at this god-forsaken job
My head hurts

Randomly engaging the intellectual side of my brain
I try to trigger a phenomenon to instil a sense of worth and excitement in my cold, cold waste of space of a body
The following words are typed in an internet search engine:
Meanings of love, fate, history, psychology, paintings, poems, pixies, afterlife, current life, previous lives, music, angels, spirituality, condemnation of values, fires, blizzards, happiness – what is happiness, where can I find it, does it exist?
My mind struggles to cope with the apparent absurdity and randomness of my search for new horizons

A brief relaxing moment at staring out my window is shared with an excitable pigeon who seems hell-bent on finding the right person to leave their digested after dinner delights on
Biting my nails
Clenching my fists
Aware of my frustration a wry smile comes across my face
My eyes gently close, no longer twitching
A moment of serenity passes into my soul
Life is not a struggle
There are enough people who will instantly dislike you for no fault of your own without also being at war from within…………………
Learn to love thyself.
