Tangled
I am tangled
in a web of emotion.
placing wagers,
defying destiny,
and facing consequences.
I lie here and ponder,
dreams that remain unfulfilled,
clinging to what's familiar,
nonetheless,
demanding change.
running towards the future,
shackled,
by chains of the past.
suspect of everyone,
as I tread lifes crooked path.
Sunrise fades into sunset,
another day is squandered,
imprisoned by my thoughts;
voices of penitence taunt me
in the unforgiving silence
weight of remorse.
aggrieves my soul
vulnerable to the fading
of my blurring cognizance.
