Desolate being
Close your eyes
Thoughts uncontrolled
Sink further inside
Making no sense
To call this your best...
Confusion lying
Heavily on your chest
And it's all gone
Stare into the ceiling
Laugh as it stares back
What is this you are feeling?
Temporarily stressed
Reluctantly insane
Amusingly depressed
Smile...you're still the same
Push it back
Let it slide
Negativity lightens
Nothing to hide
Close your eyes
Make it okay
And it will be
At least for today
