Anticipation

I can look into the sky and notice rain unfallen
I can feel shifts in energy, a miserable calling
When you hurt, I can feel it from forever away
When you snap, it has power to ruin my day
I can sense when the feelings have begun to cease
When I can’t seem to meet your most basic of needs
My chest tightens painfully when things go awry
My only coping skill is to shelter and cry
I’ve been trying forever, I don’t possess the skills
I don’t know what to do, I don’t know how to heal
But I’m tired of running, it’s not healthy to cower
Anticipation is such a dangerous superpower
