Vacant eyes stare unfocused
The body slouches over
Exhausted from the trials of life
Weary from the constant motion
Inside a heart aches
from the pain of being
Bleeding love that
will never be returned
Sleep comes easily
Whenever and wherever
Grateful to be taken away
to another dimension

My thoughts erratic scattered like dead leaves In a barren field Flying every which way Undisciplined and confusing My head spins As it tries to remember Everything that needs to be done Not only for you but for me too Intimidating and daunting My identity lost Drowned in your pool of needs and wants Your incapacities Demanding and exhausting My sanity teeters On the edge of unreason Your only responses indifferent and perfunctory Dismaying and disheartening My energy level low When did I become invisible? A means only to your end Being your caregiver Debilitating and demoralizing Copyright © 2021 Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing All Rights Reserved Word Prompts My - Stream of Consciousness Discipline - Word of the Day Scattered- RDP Field - FOWC
