tim's Bits and Pieces - 19. Lethargy

These are the poems mentioned in my blog - A Lethargy.

 

Right now—today—I scrabble in the darkness

Like it’s dirt

I can feel it under my fingernails

I ran, but not far enough

you can’t get away from yourself

even if you are Forrest Gump

 

 

 

I sit

Hear the clock tick

See the hands move

While I am motionless

And time goes on

Days go by

And I waste them

But I cannot move

Or do what I love

I am seized with a lethargy

Hungry or cold, it matters not

I sit

Thanks to my dear friend and editor, AC Benus. And to all of you who choose to read my work; many thanks.

Though you've been down this week, frankly it hasn't been as bad as in the past. I still think that it's the effect of the lower dose meds and the Natural Calm.  And that you've managed to pull yourself out of it somewhat today, is wonderful. These two poems are also not as hopeless as some previous ones have been. They tell me how you feel, but they do not frighten and are not so filled with hopelessness. 

No, they aren't as hopeless. Thank You xo

We need a "hug" option for the likes.... But these are concise and say a lot with few words. That's a gift

Hugs from me, too. It's kind of relieving to read your blog entry in addition to this because your poem is so intense...
