Anxious

Nothing on this moment did Dasein feels just today
Anxiety crawling in his spine
Caught in between
Two contradictory lines

Free to choose, free to hide
Whether to chase his love, his lady
Or face his present reality

His heart dictates his mind commands
A fish caught in the net of possibility
What is this nauseatic feeling?
Oh the pain! Oh what excruciating pain!

Regret shall come, surely will
He couldn’t even eat any meal
A Nocturnal being in fright
Please let him go tonight.

To say something his heart desires
About his impatience of the future
Because he knew someone waits
Outside his door.

Candles cry in melancholic light
Please choose, pray proceed
He could not even heed

Holding the knob
He simply turns
What freedom he feels today!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
