New work

Disappear

I can’t sleep tonight

Troubled head

Troubled mind

Troubled soul

I wish that I could be cleansed

Be better

Sometimes just to drop of the side of the planet

I find myself asking always, why?

Why is the question that questions a question

And frankly, I don’t know anymore

What to do

What would be better?

If I could just disappear

Hi Phil. I noticed this post was categorised under New Work rather than being a poem from one of your books. With that in mind, I hope you are feeling better this morning and not still feeling like you want to disappear now. If I’ve assumed wrongly, forgive me. It’s just that you are a friend, and I care about you.

  Hi Ellie, yes, difficult at moment, but it’s the same for everyone. Just got to deal with it. Thanks for caring.
