Melancholy
Simple and soft I can not move
Wrapped in tender unseen melancholy.
My mental state I cannot prove,
I feel as though I have stumbled into folly.
I feel the fool for I cannot rise
And leave this constructed tenderness.
I wish to move but I cannot pry open my eyes
I lie in false comfortableness.
Why do my emotions betray me?
Nothing has happened yet hear I am.
Laying in bed wishing to be free
To be a hawk and not a lamb.
I wish to let my mind fly,
To soar among total creativity.
Yet my mind feels dry,
From these shackles I must flee.
Today will be conquered in a haze,
Out of bed I stumble and step my way.
I will move through this maze,
And I will survive till the end of the day.
