Musing
Unseen, like my fears in the dark
Unheard, like my cry in the wild
Dumb, can't make a sound
And still, my miseries abound.

In the night, I lay me down
Troubled in my soul, but I try
To put up a smile
So the world doesn't know
My Truth - I am a woman of doubts.

Threatened by the past,
I'm defeated by my heart pants.
Reaching out with shriveled hands
If only to touch a wilting nerve,
An extension of fiction, I conjure.

Someone wake me up
The dreams are starting to hold on
Like a sunken anchor
It's grips have lodged in my brain
I know it's time to wake
But try as I might to wake...
I fail.
