WELTSCHMERZ

Wearied perspective; I’m not the first
And fate could have it worse,
Yet I can’t cope,
And always knew
Consequence for un-ending hurt.
 
Drain the blood, amputate; discard what I won’t need,
Numb every thought and overdose on benzodiazepines,
I’ll shepherd the shame
To the grave,
Squeeze until it bleeds.
 
Take away recollection; take away all sight,
Sever memories with a hot knife,
What good is good;
And thoughts alone?
Cut away synapses to empathise.
 
Electro-shock until I can’t feel, or use
Serotonin, melatonin; turning black and blue
A shield of paper
Drips out of darkness,
Cancerous trauma; take me away from you.
 
In discarding fallacies of hope & faith,
Expectation and pain; peels and floats away,
Quiescent convalescence,
In impervious silence,
I’ll let every emotion leave, & rise again.

(2015)
