Riding Roughly Poem by Annie Carmona

Riding Roughly



A stairwell suspended
vertigo in my eyes

Prayers and curses meld
desperation in my thoughts

Lucidity is never far off
but still unattainable

The quiet darkness squeezes
my pulse races

I want the free back
but it's elusive like the
lucidity I can't gather
and fold

I fill my heart with conviction
but my humanity betrays me

I want to sleep and wake up
without a care in the world
in the real world

The world is as real as we see through the eyes of the mind: nice poem
