Laying in the fetal position
with itches and urges
I can't scratch
and I'm helpless

My mind
is heavy and undecided
it can't be made up
not even sure how

And I think
too much for my own good
an endless black cloud
of randomness

And sometimes
I can catch one
A thought, a flash of light
Seconds maybe or forever

My smile fades
It is like my mind
I try to control it
and it hurts

I suck at this
All I can do is survive
remember to breathe
It's only a life

I sense a small baby, helpless in a bed. But then I have the feeling that it is me sometimes. I hope that it is not you. Ron

Strength to you, Beth,
and more strength;
well delivered from the heart

The Ravyn: Riding the Cyclone by Jennifer Sloan by Erin Kelly-Moen

This book has been eight years in the making. It is mostly a jumble of thoughts written down in old spiral notebooks and hidden in the bottom drawer underneath various manuals for software packages and hardware long since turned obsolete.
