I bid adieu to my wandering mind- <br />For i must focus on today... <br />Caught in between the rise and fall of wellness <br />And its various shades of grey; <br />No mediocre moments to hold me <br />The mundane has taken its leave <br />I am lost, and emersed at full attention <br />While, in my heart, i continue to grieve; <br />Its an unhappy ending that breaks me <br />Hopeless and helpless-i find no ease <br />No answers forthcoming in this situation <br />I come undone in the freeze; <br />For the Winter of life has come calling <br />Blanketing me with heavy despair <br />As if buried alive in an avalance of worry <br />Nothing to hope for-not even the wing of a prayer; <br /> <br /> <br />December 7,2011 <br /> <br />By: Theodora Onken<br /><br />Theodora (Theo) Onken<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/overwhelmed-ii/
