Suggestion

Ma5on

A dense cloud of anxiousness drenches my being

My vision blurs as toxic tears prevent me seeing

I want to scream, but then swallow it down

My fake facade tries to smile, but displays a frown

Why misery drags me to my knees; I just don’t know

I search for an answer, but have forgot the question

There’s many possibilities, but I’m open to suggestion

 

A thick mist of nervousness destroys my contrition

My brain fogs as lethal waves build my suspicion

I need to shout, but then gag on the word

My fake veneer discloses a mind, lost and absurd

Why misery drags me to the floor; I just don’t know

I trawl for an answer, but can’t recall the question

There’s many possibilities, but I’m open to suggestion

    Daggum. These words are strong. It sure feels absurd much of the time. I tend to find it's quelled by a good dose of sunshine, but I happen to live in one of the darkest places in the country come fall/wintertime.

      I’m definitely not a sunshine seeker. Give me dark clouds and driving rain anytime.

      There is a tree near to where I live. When it rains I go and sit under it and write.

      Inspiration from precipitation!!

        Sounds like you'd fit right in here in Whitefish, MT then! By all means, I love the rain as well, but the sunshine sure is good for the brain!

        Those clouds may help you Ma5on but what you must know is that the sun is always above the clouds so you will never get away from it.
