A poem about recent trials and tribulations in my life.
Regret can eat away at you like a cancer
infecting your thoughts
have you ever watched
cockroaches
eat away from the inside
the very thing
you have always strived to acquire
seen the dregs of society
sully the place most sacred to you
a nightmare turned reality
the unthinkable brought
to fruition
watching the candle burn from both ends
the unsleeping beast its action
so static
my heart so conflicted
the womb to return
sometimes what i’m wishing
assistance though is what i need
to move from back
to on my feet
a little boy who needs some sleep
some sleep
some sleep
awake
