Afternoon Heartache
Rising Conflict
A moment I can't escape
I wonder why-

Abbreviated appreciation
Innocent confusion
Thoughts that race inside my mind.

I struggle to understand
As I hold back tears
I don't belong here
In memories
In dreams
For I may as well be invisible
Empty
Strung about here and there;

Mediocre feelings
Blind adversity
Life without me
May as well be.
