Respite
I want to be.
Just to be.
No questions.
Answers.
Wondering, struggling.
Challenging. Defying.
Beating the odds.
Beating the clock.
Berating myself.
For what I am,
And what I want.
For how to get there,
And how long it takes.
For all of us
Who have no voice,
And little choice.
Running faster
faster
On the hamster-wheel
of dreams.
