Drifting Poem by Tara W. Johnson

'Slowly Drifting'
'Tho Afloat'
'Sleepless congested sick nights'
'All I know is Allergy Go Away'
Nothing Else.

Once again I feel myself drifting, slowly drifting away/
If only things could be different, then I know I would stay/
Yet with so many things missing, I don't know what to say/
Because the words are not working, & it hurts living this way
I tried giving it my all, but didn't get what I need in return/
And no matter what friend I call, it's still this that I yearn
To turn left or turn right, there's only two choices to choose/
One says do and one says don't, still I feel cold and confused
And now my soul is torn into two, like from us to me and you/
Like what I loved & what I lusted, weren't the you who I knew
I sought the truth & I found it, then nearly drowned when I did/
Struggling to get my head around it, though it is what it is
I can't say that I'm not p*ssed, but you will never see me cry/
As even though you did what you did, what you lived was a lie
And for me to give time to a liar, would be a waste of my time/
It's clear you don't have a heart, so here sweetheart, have mine.
