Lost

An Original Poem:

I’m stumbling 

Naked in this nightmare

But at least a nightmare is still a dream. 

Stumbling, naked 

My hearts dripping 

Battery acid onto 

Every way out through the snow 

And I guess I realize

I’m 

Truly

lost. 

Out of desperation I cling to one wing

Of a dying bird

Because I never learned how to fly

Or maybe you just made me forget that I knew how. 

I’m falling 

We’re all falling but cold hearts make us feel

Frozen in the sun 

That will eventually burn 

Burn

Burn Out. 

So I’ll piss on the ashes of my old

Cremated self 

Putting an end to the suffocation that swallowed me

And left me frozen 

I may be lost

But I can find 

Myself.
