Succumb

Cole Bradburn — 4 Comments

succumbNever a passing moment too soon

saving me from rationality.

Escape my head, tear out my heart

for it hurts too much to beat.

Beat me to death if I would let it…

But where do I hide

with no sanctuary of the mind preserved?

In the early hours before daybreak

I am left trembling in the shadows.

Show me the way, for I will follow you…

    Cole, this is fantastic. Been there, done that. More often than I’d like to admit.

      Thank you Jim.  I think creatives go there more than most.

    ”
