The World

S.E. Bourne
Feb 20, 2023

The world just never felt right

Never

From a toddler till now

I have felt more often than not

As if in some scary fun house

Warping mirrors and malice

All in wait

To surprise with shock and awe

Disbelief

There are moments

Enough moments

Where the beauty of the world is counterbalanced

Just enough

But today I wake up heavy

No longer knowing

Who I am, or what I am or where I should be
