*Sigh
Again I wake up with the weight of the world on my heart.
Silence consumes me.
I can't keep doing this because,
Nothing ever changes...
Except when everything does.
Again I drag myself half-heartedly from my bed.
Discontentedness falls over me.
Tears fill my eyes as I step into the shower because,
Nothing ever changes...
Except when everything does.
Again I leave my safe haven and face the evil world.
Weariness fills my soul.
I'm too tired to go on because,
Nothing ever changes...
Except when everything does.
I barely see the car as it speeds through the red light.
I can see the fear in the other drivers eyes as he slams into me.
Darkness befalls me.
Everything is always changing...
Except when nothing does.
Author notes
This is the first poem that I have written in over a year. I fear that I've lost my touch (if I ever really had any discernable talent is open for debate). All feedback is appreciated.
