In my Corner

The wind whispers warnings to me,

The whirling fan speaks of dark thoughts

Yet another failure, yet another struggle.

From the moment, I feel like not getting up,

To the moment I lay back in bed

Why do we do what we do?

The curtains sway in the gentle breeze,

Forming shapes of memories, only I can see.

Sometimes I speak to You, and I hear

You're answering me.


Your voice is distinct in my head,

 As if I remember how you speak.

I cook up stories in my head,

Happy endings, to help me sleep.

Hoping there is a world somewhere,

Where it's all real, like yesterday was

Without those, my day has no meaning.

I don't care if I don't understand

What I share with you is a bond redefined.

You are the light I seek in my darkness,

The will I chase with hope,

Not to run out of it, as I lay in tears

Struggling to get out of bed again,

Looking for purpose and meaning

Of a small, insignificant life in this chaos.
