Again

I speak without talking
I look without seeing
I feel without touching
I hurt others without trying
I live in a world of dreams
I amble on but I go nowhere
I am corrosive yet soothing
Crazy with a foul disposition
I want to talk
I want to be interested
I want to be involved
I do not know how to engage you
I cannot communicate, effectively
I cannot convey my thoughts
In a manner that you might understand
I become frustrated
I become angry
I am afraid to commit
I am afraid of being abandoned
I am afraid that my biggest fear is being realized
Again

I Want

In a deep depressive state
Cannot remember if I was ever a nice person
I think I have a great dislike for myself
I used to like myself
Now
I feel like the shit
That gets stuck on your shoe
A foul stench follows
I have always been wrong
When I was a kid
When I was a young man
When I was a married man
Now when I am an aging man
Makes me want to hide from
My family
My friends
The world itself
I want to run away
I want
I want
I want

Spiral

No wind in my sail
No snap in my step
No reason to motivate
No reason to try
Wrong is wrong is wrong
Is wrong
Will I forever
Always
Be wrong
