Rare Frenzy

Everything has bent
Into inexorably downward spiral
Small breathes became
Now labored and lonely

Instructions for my voice, please.
I’ve forgot how it’s used
Can’t remember why
Finding it; impossible understanding

Words are foreign
Belonging not of my language
Empty sounds
Digging a large hole

Side of head aches
Weep myself away
Into another world
Not fully formed

Ran from myself
Spent many days
Handing life over
To sudden darkness

Aqua vitae
Such a disease
A craving
Burns insides so slow

Recall me for these days
Said without an expression
And forget not of the old ones
Where I was sickly; gave in.

Not better yet
But the start has begun
Rough route in progress
Waiting for something more then baby steps

Please tell me what you think

    This is an interesting poem. I really liked the last stanza. I hope you find what you're looking for.
