Pretending to be alright
with my heart in a vice
hazy vision, clouded thoughts
laboured breaths, heavy feet
a low that seems to drown
smile on my face
and a welcome song in heart
I force myself to hum
tone deaf cheery tune
every moment a fight
every moment a fight
denial of negativity
hope that i sow
it crumbles before it finds root
yet I keep sowing
waiting for benevolent rain
drench me in your essence
make me see what I see not
guide me, help me, rescue me
prayers after a long pause
not to lose self to dark
show me a glimmer
a light i can follow on
tell me to have heart
tell me it will be alright
remind me to love
remind me to live
remind me to be
