“Untitled” 7

Bittersweet memories fill my dreams

Each night more aggressive than the last

Nothing seems to stop these subconscious thoughts

I try to fight back, but every retort is met with

Disdain, dismissal, anything but acceptance

Whether sober or inebriated, I can’t seem to find

The forgiveness I seek, the forgiveness I need

I can’t accept myself, and haven’t found it in others

I search for an oasis, hidden in the depths of my mind

A place to rest, a place to find some semblance of solace

But I seem fated to wander in the deep darks of my thoughts

One day I may find my peace, but today is not that day
