Title: Ask Me Tomorrow

Poem: Too much talk of death
a virus in our head
Words too often said
a cancer we take to bed
So much talk
of unbridled thought
Running faster
than a keyboard mouse
We forget “normal” people bleed
they hurt each other
They are just as confused
about what they want
Are we better than we think?
We face emotions and feelings
Most are able or choose to ignore
like each other, and you and me

If I had to pick a disease
It would be this one
It makes me sensitive
compassionate
and a little bit creative
We plumb the depths of being
We explore the sky of feeling
And if we're “lucky” to be in the middle
We express the beauty of it all...

Ask me tomorrow
I'll feel differently...
