Suspicion

Mistrust overtakes the moment

I see you around;

the situation now feels suspicious.

Without progress I try to calm myself.

 

Thought after invasive thought

provokes me to rash action.

And soon all I am is buried,

all these out-of-myself worries.

 

“Let them go!” I want these thoughts to leave.

But they just keep going: on repeat.

Gnawing at my fears and

drinking down my control.

 

I’ve lost it all.

 

When there’s nothing left,

suspicion leaves me feeling cold.

Down to the bottom of myself,

I feel unworthy.
