Image for the poem Live a little more

Live a little more

I don’t feel alive
Sitting on the couch
No one calling
Nothing on tv

Focus on my breathing
Decide who’s deceiving
Disguise who I’m being
Dream who I could be again

Describe how I’m feeling
Prescribed to feel again
Only to stare at the ceiling
Blank face in my mirror begs

If I’m already dead
I should start living
Stop caring while
I can be me again

Until then
I crawl out my grave
And try
A little harder than before
I’ll live
Live a little more

Might Fall on my knees
Beg god please
But I’ll Breathe in the new

I don’t want to feel
possessed by this feeling
Wanna do what’s next
while I’m stealing air breathing

I don’t know where
I’m going to stay
when all this goes away
No memories or thoughts
So I’m going to start living a little more

Author's Note
I was being slowed down by a car in the right lane one day and then I noticed how long I was in that lane and got in the left lane and got there sooner and thought that’s kinda how life is. You can complain being slowed in the right lane and go faster in the left lane but go too fast maybe crash or maybe miss your exit that you wanted to go to
