Am I There Yet?
Weekly Prompts Jan. 15–21, 2022
I crave the days of old
when I didn’t need to feel
my feelings were locked up
buried deep in my mind.
Feelings overwhelming every day
the chambers in my mind unlocked
flooding my body with panic
intruding, always present.
Moments of balance fleeting
need to run away compelling
feelings too much to endure
can’t step back, scared to go forward.
When will I reach the middle
the calm space I deserve
I reach out my hand, fingertips extended
am I there yet? Soon, I hear my heart whisper.
