I just
Need to take
One step
Then another
Then another
Until
I am able
To run again
Towards the
Destination
I need to
Get to
In my head
If only
I put
These legs
Over the edge
Of the bed
Stand up
Stretch
Walk to
The bathroom
Brush my teeth
Take a shower
Go to the closet
Get dressed
Begin the day
With breakfast
Go outside
Let the sun
Shine
On my face
Instead
I keep
Dreaming
I am not up
I am not
Out of bed
Because
It is
Too often
Now
I lay
In bed
Drifting along
This path
Limboing
In this life
Not living
Slowly dying
But
Not dead
Just
Hindering fate
Being my
Number one
Enemy
Trapped in
My own head
And it
Is sad
I keep
Hearing myself
Saying
That
I am
Playing with fire
Yet I can not
Get off
This emotional rollercoaster
Is not fun
Getting high
Only
To crash
And burn
Below
Finding yet
Another weakness
Instead
It comes
And goes
As it pleases
Leaving
Without a trace
Becoming another
Disappointment
Another
Day
I let
Get away
Waiting to
Begin
Another tomorrow
To try
To get motivated
And
Make more excuses
Why yesterday
Was not the day
Why today
Is not the day
To get up
Playing the same
Old record
Trapped in
My head
With no mojo
Because
It ran away
Again
