Smudged Glass
Hiding from myself and all those around me
Looking thru a blurry window and unable to see
Over thinking and smudging the lines
Struggling more as this monster confines
No longer can I surcomb to this
or be the happy dagger clutched in fist
Instead I have to fight this treacherous descent
Clutch strength to burry hurt and lament
