Seeking present ...

I wondered endlessly about tomorrow until it wheeled to past

I’d wanted to brood over my present too, but it just could never last

I plugged my ears & closed my eyes to commemorate the forgotten

When actually I was only hoping for this pause to somehow shorten

For hours, days and months together I’ve dreaded an imaginary fear

Not knowing what to expect next, yet expecting the worst to appear

Unable to seek the inner light, my dreams have slowly lost their sight

Now I cringe at each call of chance, uncertain about my spirit to fight

Anchored down by inertia and countered by assumptions so strange

I can only wait for that time when things, would simply re-arrange
