Seeking Awareness

Emotions lingering for comfort,

Searching discontent 

Cryptic

Leaves cascading like faded ornaments 

Spruced up when you called my name at night…

Never anticipating those moments that made me remember the summer breeze

Of Innocence

Those short time period during the day

Escaped 

Before

I medicated at night

Dispersed    

A constant reminder of illness

Short and silent 

Easing away the pain 

I say goodbye 

To 

Young and youthful 

Candies that I once took 

For comfort 

Not realizing 

The exposure 

Of toxins, cannibalism and atom balls

Just like napalms 

Exploding away 

In this body 

That I 

Called 

Home!
