There’s a war in my mind
What is normal?

There’s a war in my mind
And my body is begging
For a ceasefire
It seems I’m never happy
With what lands in my lap
Always peering around the corner
What could be? What could’ve been?
In moments of weakness
I search outside for the solution
A pill, a drink, another human
A lobotomy
But when I have the bandwidth to
Take my brain out to lunch
In the form of a quiet sit
I realize again and again
Everything she needs
To feel safe and seen
Lives inside me
