New poetry.

You have to keep reminding yourself
It’s just another day
but it’s hard to achieve a pleasant slumber
to keep your thoughts and your demons at bay
It’s hard to remember privilege, with your heart soaked in pain
A poisonous concoction, traveling through your veins
You see the world through a bright, blurry lens
red eyes that sting as you approach your dead end
keep reminding yourself
it’s just another day
and another restless night
and your demons come out to play
