Agony

Fighting The Depression
As if I were giving a Confession
My Brain isn't learning the Lesson
With a 24/7 Video Therapy Session

Everything is on Repeat
Eyes burning with this heat
I'm in Hells Delux Suite
In this round, I think I am beat

This month is not nice
Triggers in a row Twice
I'm not lucky with the dice
My mind has been sliced

Out on the limb
As the lights go dim
Fighting 24 without a win
Fighting to protect my kin

Sleepless nights
I know my rights
Yet constant mind fights
everything is out of my sights

This demon likes to antagonize
My soul and body is its prize
I'm alone and he doesn't realize
This visit though was a surprise

This is my limit
I want to pivot
And skip it

This is a tragedy
horror of calamity
Just living in Agony

Explosions

I'm Trapped in my mind
As explosions become louder
And the media does streamline
He had chemicals and powder

Confined to the basement
As it sounds like a warzone
and the house is vibrating
my body in displacement
while fire is emanating

Terror lasted two hours
As my PTSD devours
Everyone is traumatized
Stay inside police advised

Hearting is pumping
Head is thumping
Anxiety takes my breath
Is this my death

I was here
While you were there
Saying it's not a big deal
Are you for real!

Wild Emotions
Loud Commotions
Blank Stare
Fear and confusions being aware
With horrible Explosions

Battlefield

That saying of Love is a Battlefield
The person was wise beyond years
Love makes people face those fears
While making the heart yield

Sealing love with a kiss
As if life depended on it
The relationship can be hell or bliss
Staying connected with each other though takes wit

Words always fall short
thus we're left with an emotional fort
And sometimes even court
Where you just want to take a trip to the port

Love is a mess
Love is Complicated
Love comes with modesty and full of express
And excitement is elated

Yet sometimes family can dictate
Family can destroy intimacy
Making everything look like a conspiracy
Even making people debate

Is this love true
Or is this love through
Words can hurt and reveal
As Family can seal the unwanted deal

One may be broken
While the other is bound and choking
Action is the only truth spoken
While the heart keeps hoping

One may have fallen in love
Yet the other kept getting the big shove
One is torn asunder and not healed
The Other Still Fights on the Battlefield

Car From Hell

This car has an issue that can't be fixed
My feelings have been mixed
Transmission kicks and is very betwixt
It's in a position stuck and affixed

Transmission is Old and Going
Engine like on and showing
Signs of EVAP issue growing
Soon this car will need towing

Fix one problem and another comes
Bang the tires and the oil drums
Money spent and it was large sums
Crazy ahead there are no more funds

Ringing the bell
I know what the mechanic will tell
Don't need to create the bill or even spell
This is a Car from Hell

Summer

The days become longer and hot
The heat makes things hard to spot
Tourists fill up the beach parking lot
Music lovers layout the cot
As writers take their shot

Inspiration is all around
With animals making their musical sound
Deers leaping in abound
Where magic can be found
A new legend is crowned

Pandemic mandates semi lift
Peoples focus has shift
Where we can go shopping at a thrift
Be careful of the dream or it will take you adrift
Watch where you walk there's a rift

Welcome the newcomer
We needed this drummer
As the band plays on in the mummer
The exciting times of the Summer
