delicately crippled by cOnFuSiOn

A free verse/haikus

Abused and bemused
So taken advantaged of
Accused…took the blame

Amused by muses
Strifeful peace don’t mix too well 
Held on for dear life…

Crippled and confused
Delicately decaying
Bruised feelings…screwed loose…

Collapsed suddenly
Guess this is goodbye for now
Burdened — in a rut…

Cut down the ropes please
Tell me it’s okay…I’ll live
Give or take…at ease

Yet, I’m too nervous 
Too fearful of what lies dead…
Dead inside — anxious~

Too afraid to let go
Rather be dead than alive
Feeling so hollow . . .

Here’s two words I feel — 
Lonesome insecurities
You are a joy kill

I’m misunderstood
So? — you ask like whatever
Too good to be real…
