You

A Poem

You’re the truth I can’t explain

If I keep trying, I’m sure to go insane

I keep trying to rearrange

My thoughts — to break the chains

I’d let my thoughts spill from my pen

But I’m afraid

You might not embrace (them)

So I lay-

Awake

To make sure my mind doesn’t create

Dreams I wish wouldn’t be on display

Clutching on to yesterday

Don’t want my mind to erase

The memories

Because sometimes they’re my only escape
