“Late Night Mind Write” by Kevin Sanders

2 drinks over dinner
Feels like 12 would on a all-nighter
Pills are magnifying
Every thought and desire

Feeling crushed and relieved
By every question and belief
Each holds true to the core
Not a side effect even I can treat

Shaking hands and feet
Veins bulging, heart pumping
Cannot accept the defeat
No chairs to take a seat

Awake me from my sleep
To a demon underneath amongst the sheets
Wisdom in words I speak
I was taught, but never teached

Wound tight for weeks and weeks
2 drinks for no release
A give me, but no please?
Now I beg and plea

For mercy on enemies
In fear for them
And not me
Forgiveness is unforeseen

Was weak but never bled
Cried without a tear
Gave it all and fell
There’s not a sorry I haven’t said

My eyes are wide with vision blurred
Jaw aches while fingers shake
Better follow your heart
For heavens sake

Remember your special every day
Give thanks and praise
No, “I cants” or any negatives
For god would want you to be this way

For freedom of speech
I get to say
Be as today as it will tomorrow
Another good day
