Long Introspectionmay Poems

The Day Begins

scared to wake up everyday
you     the ones like me
know who i am speaking of

the morning begins with a rude slap from the alarm buzzer
work calls       for some like me
and although the morning may start out sunny and bright

it may turn a murderous black
and flit from shades of grey off and on for hours ...
this murderous black
unpredictable in nature
can
when provoked
spill out into murderous rage - splattering innocent bystanders with rains of the past
so scared to wake up everyday
you     the ones like me
know of whom i am speaking to

and i have no answers
no solutions except to learn to feel compassion for yourself
expand it outwards
even outwards more
and by consistency
perhaps one day
rainbows will come out to play.
