Which One Will I Wear Today? (Repost)

Lately,

It’s been hard to write anything.

Overthinking till my mind overflows with a sea of memories I drown into,

Fatally.

Because,

A piece of me dies each time I dip my feet inside of it.

A sea colder than the heart of a mother who gave up on her son too early despite of his potential glowing brighter than ever…

But,

Where else can I go in a world I’ve been exiled from.

No love while I walk down Broadway just,

Scarred by the knives thrown at my soul,

Already waning as I hang on a brittle ledge,

Barely…

“Everyone has problems!”

Is the response I’m given anytime I try to reach for help to solve this mystery of purpose.

Even if I’m confident on the surface,

I still question if I’m worth anybody’s love in unconditional fashion.

So much anger worn on my sleeves from the madness,

Of being called a crack head,

For wearing the same usual clothes when I can’t afford to fill arrays of shopping bags full of regret I desire to address.

Never said I was perfect as I smoke any time I am under stress,

Clouding my droopy eyes from clearly seeing my own mess.

But,

Everyday I take a small step forward,

Towards what serves me best.

Sobriety.

By silencing a mind so desperate to scream and shatter that bottle of rage inside of me.

Slowing down my drive before I crash into dead ends and die!

When these hands were given a plethora of blessings I would love to offer back to a world I,

Just want to be apart of…
