10:55

It's 10:55

I'm losing my mind

I try to count sheep

But they just pass me by

I get up and sit

At my desk, bite my lip

What to write, how to feel

Maybe my humor conceals

Who I am truly

Could that possibly be

If you are not you

And I am not me

Then what is my purpose

Why am I still awake

Shut my eyes 

Nope

Why am I here

The darkness I fear

Good night, broken world

It's 10:55

And like I said, clearly

I'm losing my mind

  • I

    I am so creative

    So flowing

    Expressive

    And yet so literal

    Precise

    Logical

    I am a walking 80's cliche

    A walking contradiction

  • Contrasting

    I have people who will hold me 

    Love me

    Splash me in sparkles and giggles and emails

    And I have people who will hurt me

    Snark

    Sarcasm

    Never really laughing

    Never really there

  • Take me away

    Just take me away from here

    Whisper stories of starlight and fire

    Water scrambling over rocks

    Iron in my eyes

    Just take me away from here

    To a fantasyland where it's us

    Just us
