Quicksand

Caught…
Distraught…
A
Single
Thought…
Why?
Brain fried.
Love denied.
Stripped of pride.
Awestruck.
Cement Stuck.
Out of luck.
Stranded.
Branded.
Where have I landed?
Fuck the plight,
And this eternal night.
I won’t go down,
Without a fight.

My name is Jesse, I am a writer. I post both poetry and mental health pieces about my own struggles and journey on my blog here: https://oneregulardad.home.blog/
