Moral Compass

If you’re wondering where I’ve been?

Climbing out of an abyss.

I do think about many moments I’ve missed.

Missed calls,

Ignored messages,

Accumulating as my anxiety rises.

But I do ask,

Where are you during my mental crisis?

I’m still here,

Because I can’t jump off bridges already burnt,

Even though I’m trying….

Think about it.

Same way I had to while I was drowning,

In bottled up tears strangers drink from more.

Getting drunk on stage with what I pour,

From the core.

Must admit though,

I like it that way.

Only way I can stay on track and navigate…
