Poems from Prose and Cons, and Poetry Of Life
by Shelly Wiseberg
Disorder
Anxiety of worries
stresses in life
irrational fears
rigid in perception
patterns unbroken
frozen in movement
from opportunities passed.
Avoiding of participation
sitting on the sidelines
watching in slow motion
the fear of dying
hearts racing fast
in much anticipation
reclusive and isolated
from the world
passing you by
trapped in a prison
that is no lie
immobilized I cry.
Emotional Release
Released from my struggles
holding in woes
letting myself breathe
without grasping for air
and turning cold.
Clearing my head
from past patterns of dread
locking in a continuous
cycle of repeating.
Going on a merry -go -round
never knowing
when to get off that ride.
Stop fighting yourself
in your own head
relax and learn
to let it go.
Fear is irrational
it is all in your mind
controlling your every thought
numbing your soul
from growing in the positive.
Stop digging your own hole
of emptiness and struggle
no more.
Me
Closed in spaces
open places
frozen in movement
of fears and doubt
inner longing
self sabotage
of the belonging
of one's own life.
A never ending struggle
turmoil and avoidance
just to relax
without major attacks
of panic
closed in a rut
of rhuemination
of thought and expression
blocked by one's own doing
of disoriented confusion
safe in the comfort zone
of routine.
To venture out is tough
simple things are rough
the what if's are plenty
feeling trapped in turmoil
a personal exile
of heaven and hell.
The wholeness of self
in fragmented pieces
overwhelmed with saddened releases
of energy saved
stuck in limbo then over reacted
within the walls of self protection
to step outside the fears
and feel free.
