untitled

trying desperately
to stay al ive
find lost joys
wait for a change
that never
seems to come.
 
 
another visit
to kill time
repeated scenarios
and prescriptions
wake up to a pill
go asleep to the same
feel no different
in the interim.
 
a body on the track
so easy to understand today
a future of this
is slow pain and disintegration.

I get it

A powerful personal poem. Just a personal thing, if you can think of a poem you can think of a title. cheers, Jess
