Floating and Falling

Just Another Poem

By Lyndsie JinesPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I feel like helium trapped inside a balloon

Light and transparent

Just floating along with the wind

Traveling without a purpose, Inconsistent

***

Another obstacle at every bend

One false move or action

I’ll explode

Running without detecting traction

***

I’m going nowhere

I’m slipping, falling

Grasping for something solid of who I should be

Instead, I hit the ground abruptly

***

nothing feels real to me

I’m trying my hardest to be functional today

but I can barely find the words to say

An apology for being who I am today

***

Give it a break

Let it go

They’re just words

but they’re charging into me as if they’re herds of horses

***

I can’t find peace

I wish the inconsistency would cease

I’m sorry for who I am today

I’m sorry for the constant apology
