untitled 4

A Poem by Cortney Lynn
"

i wrote this a long time ago when i was sick and on a lot of medicine that made my mind do crazy things and made me really thirsty.

"

the world is constantly whirling around me-

a fire whipped by the winds of my thoughts

friendships beginning and ending

things not meant to be said

wars spreading hate faster than

the stock market is crashing

jobs being lost while mouths go hungry

do this, do that

don't do drugs, don't have sex

will i be able to make it through

the day without crying?

 

there are all these things

and all i can do is sit here

and drink my red gatorade

from a coffee mug.

I know how that goes, when suddenly everything in the world overwhelms you at once.
Was this when you had mono, and I was sick too, so we talked to each other online haha?
