Fool in Paradise

Posted in Child Abuse, Domestic Violence, Mental Illness

Jungle density

A puppet in paradise

Potential and possibility

Poison me with filth

Drag me through the mud

Falsehoods are eroding

Fueling the monster

Sobering reminder

Childhood nightmares

On the outside looking in

Temperature rising

Fill the tub

With cold water and hope

Overflow of longing and regret

I am a mistake

Living, fighting and writing with mental illness and chronic disease and a need to express myself, easing some of the weight I carry. Till I collapse.
