F.i.in.e Moods

- going to sleep is an anxious, terrifying prospect in those times... 

It must be the ever

Increasing stress of late...

Flashbacks resurface

'Cause I'm too out

Of energy to keep

Them out of the way.

And of course,

Forget about sleep...

They invade and hog

The space where dreams

Should be happening;

Instead I feel it all again.

Stuck there, can't get out,

As if it was now... 

Violated

Beaten

Bleeding

Dying

Ad infinitum feels like.

So completely worn out...

It'd be nice of you

To stop contradicting

Yourself as concerns

Your feelings for him.

One minute you say

You cherish your times,

But in the same breath

You leave him hanging,

Over and over again,

As if he wouldn't notice.

It'd be nice of you to stop

Taking him for an idiot.

- puzzled by the I'm-offended-fest that nowadays seem to be the way of many... 

It's incomprehensible. 

You're offended for

Someone who doesn't

Feel offended at all.

How does that work?

You're up in arms,

Beating your drum,

Defending someone

Who doesn't feel any

Need to be defended.

Don't you see it's weird?

There's no victim here.

All of this is about you,

Nothing to do with what

The 'offended' party is

Actually going through.

Did you not hear them say

They're not feeling offended?

If anything, I'd say your not

Listening is cause for offense!

It's not wrong to feel offended

For someone, but if that person

Isn't feeling offended, what does

Your feeling offended matter?

It's just your private perception on

A situation that didn't even happen

To you in the first place, so why

Are you being so loud about it?

- a suggestion you'll keep to yourself, of course... 

My, what a big stick

That's stuck up there.

Y'might want to have

That seen to, m'dear.
