Ease My Mind

By coyote

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Ease my mind; tell me I'm safe.Free me, hold my hand. The shake remains a shake and peace is not conceived.I'm tired of walking into stone walls...dead ends of life.Feels the ends of my life--plain to see I'm chasing me.The bottom looms near.The death breath upon my face sends me deeper into myself.I have self-pity with little hope of change.I cannot breathe freely into new life.Cam Rahn 16 May 1971 Written September 27th, 2001 © on Sep 27 2001 11:00 AM PST   18 • 0 • 1
