DisHarmony
the clashing
of mental chords -
verbal spar, in syncopation
somehow, never resolving
Others may know music here
this is a realm in which I won't survive...
unhealthy rhythms
harm my pleading heart
toxicity in the warring
tension cascades o'er my mind
uncomfortably numbing
I must get away...
How does one manage
such dissonance; replete with fire and pain!
Scars, those deeper on the mind than
ever in the flesh - healing requires
more than merely time...
