Apprehension


I don’t know what to think.
Is there something I am missing?
Is it something I said?
I told you how I felt
But I don’t know if you feel the same.
Am I going to quickly
Or is my mind just a mess?
Was it truly the beginning
Or just the beginning of the end?
I can’t tell
But I am feeling the apprehension setting in.
Maybe I wasn’t cut out for this.
Maybe I am wrong.
I hope you do prove me wrong
Because I deserve this.
I beat myself up.
I run through everything in my mind.
But I don’t see how I can come out on top.
At least, not yet.
I might just be overthinking.
I might just be beating myself up for no reason.
But this feeling of apprehension
Isn’t going away.
Not just yet.

I’m in love with you And yet I don’t know how to say it. I feel like I’m one step behind Like I’m in love with your shadow Never again seeing the light. I grovel, Stretching out my han...

What I've Seen

You pass me on the sidewalk You sit next to me on the train. You’re pretending you don’t care But I can see your shame. You don’t care if I am sleeping You sit away from me when I am drunk. If you just took a second I would tell you what I came from. I came from a broken system I fell through the cracks. Some people tried to help me But soon stop in their tracks. You say I am homeless I say I’m living off the land. Maybe if we all crashed at the bottom You would see what I see. I see a beautiful world Being choked by power and greed. I see animals dying And it’s getting harder to breathe. I see people getting distracted About the “News” on the T.V. I see all the heart is gone And no one is helping their fellow man. I see all the pain and suffering But never a helping hand. I see voice’s going unheard While people blame the victims. I see leaders taking bribes And commending other tyrants. I see our children suffering At th...
