Not Again

By HermitX

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Not again The screws tighten The eggshell is about to crack I can't stand the pain Visions of what I can't see Scare me into a paranoia That cannot be defined The darkness is slowly creeping And I've run out of corner to back into The ball has been dropped As I dive for it I see That I'm comming up short I make mistakes But I'm not allowed to fall Too sensitive to hold A fragile mind I know I'm wrong And that I shouldn't take it hard But I cannot offer anything less Because what you see is what you get Oh no, not again Written January 2nd, 2002 © on Jan 01 2002 07:49 PM PST   18 • 0 • 1
