Nothing but a spark...

Nothing but a spark...

dan ankers

At night, via certain kinda light

and I’ve been up all night

terrified

Vilifying the thoughts within my head

Maybe on purpose

I don’t know

I think get this way, when I’m feeling nervous

(I’m anxious)

Old habits die hard

And it’s hard to forgive myself; Where’s my pardon?

Yes I’m digging up the roots within my garden

So

Where’s my heart?

Before I get too deep

I Remember that I need to sleep

but

Now there’s dirt’s scattered all over the floor

and

I can’t take this anymore

but

it’s too late

Too late

I see that light

As the fury of the day

pierces through the night

And I give in and I go on

without a fight

Wasted all my juice, last night

contemplating life

in the dark

now my brain is functioning

on nothing

but a spark
