My battery is low
There’s a drop in my flowmeter
My mind is racing
Like a NASCAR
Speed reader
I’m trying to be patient
Frantically cutting through
The thick of frustration & aggravation
They drained my blood
Now they want my life
I’m being egged toward the edge
Embracing a weak ledge
Holding on to the pledge
Neither to complain or wage war
One out of two is the best by far
Single handedly trying desperately
To seal the cracks in the cement
Of my strong commitment
My word being my bond
Cohesively trying to lock in
The pressure of my breaking point
To stop the wrecking ball
Looking down nothing
Can be found to break my fall
How far will I go down?
Will I break bones and have to crawl
Will I go to hell if I broke through ground?
I’m under the restraints of
Ropes and chains on my mind
Depleting my fleeting circulation
I can’t seem to get any ventilation
Sometimes I can’t manage
Wrap me up in a strait Jacket
Like a compressor bandage
It’s like my brain is at risk
Of being damaged
I’m losing my sanity from the
Overflow of insane caseloads
Pushing me into a vegetative state
Thank God I’m a meat eater and I just ate
Feeling like I'm on a crowded highway
Gridlocked in so much defeat
Holding me down like a paperweight
My blood boils to clotting with
Nowhere to go, let me go
I try to scream but my air won’t flow
Wrapped tightly around my wrist
Popping the bubble wrap rage
That I painfully engage
Warning me to stop and breathe
Past the breaking and shattering
Glass that breaks and interrupts my peace
