Today, Tomorrow Or Some Other Time
have you ever felt
the drum
the hum
of your mind slipping way
like a thousand voices
talking at once
and all you want to do
is fold up and cry
and the silence strikes
at the same time
a wight sits on you chest
trying to stop your breathing
and you dream of
crawling in a hole and dieing
still you stand up
and fight the tears
everything subsiding
knowing your just have to do it again
