Mercurial

I feel the fight of survival,
A panic, a switch, a black out…
Back and forth opposites extremes.
I’m not two faced, I’m just confused,
Spasmodic frequencies leave me
Disconnected, broken up, it’s only feelings,
Lighten up, darken down,
I feel them both, a clashing pair.
I forget just who I am and where I’m at,
Because sometimes I feel the fight of survival
And
I have to remind myself that we’re not rivals.

  1. Very poignant and soul-deep passion with which I can certainly identify. The struggle, yes, that becomes a “panic, a switch, a black out… back and forth opposites extremes…” This strikes close to my heart. Thank you!
