Feelings Take Hold label me a ‘mental’ if that what it takes these feelings i cannot fake label me a … More

the right people are the joy
it is them –
who are the surgeons
the ones to mend your heart

i was, ‘mental’, anyway
it prepared me well
for when life decided –
not to charge admission to enter hell

what if i stopped…
just got off…
what if i no longer –
wished to carry on

can’t you see what is happening –
to the world around you
it looks like you are too busy –
protecting your borders

it is always awkward being me
whilst others –
have aspired and perspired
just to reach an unknown top

when she went away
all i wanted to do was grieve
all i wanted to do,
was feel all of my loss
