Between the Poles

My mouth is filled
with unspoken words
thoughts are kept silent
dwindling motivation
is running rampant
this lack of desire for life
this careless + reckless state
leads to – being useless?
immense pressure inside and out
still well masked while moving
seemingly without direction
exasperated + exhausted
lost on the edge of.....
confused and afraid I arrive
at doubting everything
most of all myself
my perceptions haunt me
as I swing back and forth
between what is
what should be
and what could be
not being sure which is which

am I just another poor moth
must I fly into the flames and burn?
