Day Dream 2

Day Dream 2

A Poem by Dante Thomas
"

Continuing my little series

"
The beating of war drums in my head
Bedside demons gnawing at my flesh
Anxiety fueled dreams of things left unsaid
Toxic friendships with the shadows in my room

A depressive stranglehold around my mind
Octopus tentacles dragging me deeper into a rocky crevasse
Awakened before it can feed on my fragile mind and body
Sunlight seeping through my shades burning a hole in my eye


Water bottles and laundry scattered on the floor
No energy or willingness to clean
Black circles have become permanent make up
I don’t mind my reflection in the mirror
I do wish you would be here

Red eyes
Foggy mind
Oily hair
Unwashed clothing


…..I’m stuck in my own eternal self loathing
