Everything has slipped,
Things have started changing, Reality has ripped, My whole world rearranging.
I don't recognise surroundings, I'm lost in what was true, My heart is always pounding I just don't know what to do.
A long walk in the dark, The fresh air that I needed, A stroll through the park, Til something has receeded.
The thoughts stop overflowing, Heart not beating in my ears, I know I can keep going, Not giving in to fears.
I may never be the same,
But the world will keep turning
Now when I'm in my brain
I can stop myself from burning.
Even better that you offered your support to a friend. I got thrown by the first person perspective.
Love your rhyme and flow in this poem, Mia! Your thoughts are well-organized and definitely pulls us in with the added emotion!
Thank you for sharing this thought-provoking piece!
Actually my friend was talking about their struggles to me and we went for a walk and this all came to mind. But thank you for commenting.
You've got a lot on your mind, Mia. I'm glad taking a walk helps you. Thanks for sharing.
