My invisible Cloak

Inspiration: Anxiety 

Word: Barren 

So I sat there barren 

too wrought to pull off my grief

covered in a prickled skin 

of devilish sentiment 

My heart was thunder

quaking a simmering beast

that had lost no sleep

I was in heat

fire

burnin'

I surrender all 

my all 

was tainted

dirty, wrong 

to dismantled to mistaken

for person

's reason 

I had reason

didn't I?

for bein' 

Bein' here.

Bein' Me. 

I thought I had given my everything

Thats a lie though

I truly tried though

I couldn't even do that for me

Scared me-

threatening me?

Questing me,

for who I be?

Unspoken truths

spread like semen 

secrets but no reason

worryin' about leavin 

this place

these demons

So it's time that all take note

that I desire nothing else

no rubies no gold

I will unletter the demons the ghost

Will no longer the midst defile my sleep

I will be like the non living among dead

I will rise up swinging a white towel over my head

and let it glaze over the brim of my back

as I retire to my invisible cloak
