Scatter Brain

Scatterbrain, I refrain from learning, yearn for better days. But alas, I feel dumb and dull, like unused clay. Refusing to mould into something you desire. If only you knew the struggle I bear, all you do is point and stare, I do declare that this worlds just unfair. With each shame and blame, I regress in my fight. With each shame and blame, I regress in my murk filled mind. Just a dark grey cloud debating aloud in the night. I scratch and I claw, amidst living yet dead. Fearing the glares that leave me filled with dread. Pointing and poking, awaiting for my fall. Hoping i bow out in disgrace to it all. My inner demons whisper cruel, careless words. Berating my spirit, leaving me unheard. Yet here I lie awake, seeking a break, from this scatter brain maze that makes my heat ache. Searching for peace in the chaos I've spun. Yearning for light, for the battle to be won.
