Thoughts

Lee Renard Caspian

Today my mind is in a fog again.

 

For a moment I broke free into the blinding sun,

But now I am left choking on my own insecurities.

The weight of disappointment clings to my wrists,

Dragging me under with chains forged in self-hate.

My lungs burn from poisoned words I swallow back.

I am afraid of dissolving right before your eyes,

As you look on, head resting in clearer skies.
