Mindless

[swtkerima]

eyes lifting
searching above
following the breeze
reaching for strength

Hoping

offering tokens
giving spirit
will it be
truly a friend

Sinking

fears unfurl
tears rise
threatening to choke
scared to touch

Fleeing

thoughts recede
feelings pass
broken heart hurts
dare i try

Hiding

bravery demolished
compassion fades
why seek pain
no trust gained

Dying

coldness seeps
weariness invades
tired of trying
better simply being

Mindless
