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.
