I'm No Poe

Trying to escape
how far can one mind go
grab the gun
too loud
slit the wrists
too slow

tomorrow will come
no end in sight
until a few days later
comes the light

and if the days turn to weeks
how far can one mind go
it starts to realize, then again,
maybe that won't be too slow.

Like a child
who can do nothing right
the words out of my mouth
are they even heard
before discarded in plain sight

Strange what the mind can do when you are in a not so favorable state.  Don't get your panties in a wad.  I like to write when I am down and this is how it comes out.  No worries.  Maybe I'll "wake up" tomorrow!
