Struggle

Object Constancy

Out of sight, out of mind,

The moment when thoughts are no more kind.

It is easy pointing a finger

When dark feelings linger.

Feel the emptiness,

A body in distress,

A mind going dark,

A longing making its mark.

Knowing this ancient construct

Convincing myself I don’t get fucked

Not being succesful,

Just being stressful

Head and heart so far apart

A disconnect, where did it start?

Not with you, not with us,

It is a deeper issue with trust.

I don’t need to trust you,

I need to trust me.

You do not need to show,

I just need to know.

I can’t lean on myself for comfort,

I just see my feelings and the distort.

I don’t need to trust you,

I just need to get through.
