Time Is Running Out

Time is running out.

What chases me is catching up.

I cannot escape.

I scream for help, but none arrives.

I am alone.

I am afraid.

I am out of time.

A clock ticks in my head.

Faster, faster, faster.

Time speeds up.

Time runs out.

I am out of time.

  • I Am From

    I am from 

    My hip-dysplasia harness and 

    My teddy bear blanket 

     

    I am from my dog that always slept beside me 

    Even when my parents locked the door

    (Sometimes)

    Life just seems much too hard

    (Sometimes)

    I don't want to go on

    (Sometimes)

    I feel like it's impossible-

    Immovable walls surround me

    (Sometimes)

    I don't understand other folks-
