looking for relief

[volpe]

Hacking down nerves

Of distraction and infactuation

Thorns catch my clothes

Catch my breath

In my throat

Fall into fear again

Curbed by puncturing pain

Entrenched in muddy thoughts

Of confusion

Looking for relief in

All the dark dusty corners

If I can just figure my way out

Just figure my way out

The delusional trap

The insatiable urge to

Gnaw the wings of life

Before it flies away

While I Try

To find that point wavering in the in-between

Where I stop asking you to reassure me

But I can rest in just not knowing

What whispers and screams

Time will bring
