I feel oppressed
It’s weighing me down
It’s hard to get back up
Hard to be found.
One day is like the next
Mind-numbing boring and depressed.
I wish I could be refreshed.
Oh, when, God, will I not be a mess?

Based off a dream I keep having:
“Time makes the heart grow fonder,”
Distance away does as well.
So why when I see you
I feel like hell?
Storms brew
Feelings renew
I push away
As do you.
Denial works
It’s a way to cope
Because the last thing I want
Is a glimmer of hope.
I stay away
Till you draw me near
I know it will end
With bloodshed and tears.
I Can’t Take it Anymore
I can’t take it anymore
It’s bursting inside
Screaming to come out
Yet, I want to run and hide.
You live in my dreams
It’s better that way
But the facade is draining
Trying to push you away.
I’m addicted to the feeling
When you are near
Biting my lip
Is a new frontier.
To tell, to not to tell
To feel, to not feel
I’ll play it safe
Afraid I’ll kneel.
CrossFit Poems: You Make Me Feel
You make me feel
Is that a crime?
“I’m not dead”
Not this time.
I’m not afraid
Why should I be?
Heart beats in the night
Just you and me.
Say “yes”
And the rest?
“What will be, will be…”
CrossFit Poems: Uncertainty
It comes, and it goes
This feeling I have
Am I the only one?
Is it all I have?
You don’t need me
Like I need you
It’s all in my head
What should I do?
Despite my uncertainty
Despite my fray
All I know is this:
I want to continue to feel this way
CrossFit Poems: I’d Rather Feel
I’d rather feel than not feel
Rather be alive than dead
Chasing away thoughts
Not thinking ahead.
Blindly diving in
Consequences be damned
One last chance
A dangerous devil dance.
CrossFit Poems: I Am Not Afraid
I’m not afraid to live
I’d rather feel than not feel at all
I am strong enough to handle
Whatever turns the wheel.
I’d rather live
Than not feel
I’d rather be hurt
Than give in and kneel.
