How Am I Supposed To Know?

by Justin Mathews

/
1.
Scars layered upon inherited scars Wounds fresh and unhealing A piece of you remains Overwhelmed in feeling Inertia of inaction Keeping me away Small mercies for healing Never gaining traction Alone in an ocean Drowning with each wave Quietly I’m calling Secretly I’m thrashing I put on another mask Hiding the pain Fading in the light Is it all an illusion? I’m fighting against myself I struggle to break free Tethers wrenched so tight Cut off all the feeling Pressure building. Can you see me? Bursting at the seams? How am I supposed to know? A love ungiven A song unsung How am I supposed to know? A slight mistaken A child forsaken How am I supposed to know? A bond unbroken A life complete How am I supposed to know? Open to the world Letting fresh air flow How am I supposed to know? Scars uncovered Healing in the open How am I supposed to know? Letting go of fear Embracing, Caring How am I supposed to know? No time for costumes No time for airs How am I supposed to know? I’ll fall with love and laughter You’ll catch me after
