Wish I could take away the hurtful words leaving my lips,
But that is asking for a miracle, which I don’t believe in,
Said too many full of sorrys and apologies,
Am lost going in circles, hoping for a new way forward,
But keep coming back to the same grind and the gears in my brain freeze,
Thoughts disappear as I feel embarrassed thinking I lost grip on reality,
But nah, that’s just my heart taking over, giving rationality much need break,
Maybe I was dropped as child, or lacked the proper care,
Feeling off in my head as these thoughts make no sense,
How could I care about something that was a stranger to begin with,
I can’t never live up to his standard, but can someone hear me as I ask for forgiveness,
For all the sins I committed against him over the past decade,
Looking for a scapegoat, but I am forty now, over half way through the normal span,
Can’t blame anyone for my will to act or not to,
Got to own to my all of my side, the good and the dark,
My attitude needs a check in the mirror, instead of wanting more,
I should devote the rest of my life to giving, in whatever ways I can,
Maybe then I can sleep peaceful at night, and do it all over again,
Until my time comes to its end.

I speak insanity. I write fantasy. I sleep reality.
