A Conversation

I hang in a mind that wonders why I should

And tells me why I shouldn’t

For the people I love I couldn’t

For family, for love, I wouldn’t

I untie the belt

I put it back on my robe

This room is a conversation

Only this one is one sided

Who am I talking to?

Walking through

Wanting and willing for so much more

This room has a door

But I sleep in a paralyzed state

Dreaming while awake

Not moving for I am in an exhausted state

I wonder where this blanket will take me

For when I hide under it

I am lost

For when I uncover myself

I just don’t know where to go
