Poems of Mine

Bomb Technician

10...
I'm not human
I'm a time bomb
Ticking away
I'm sorry mom

9...
There's something wrong
And I can't name it
But everyone turns
And they all blame it

8...
On me
Your very own catastrophe
Bottled away in this box of mine
I'm running out of time

7...
My head is beginning
Just like before
To slowly begin turning
And everything is off again

6...
I don't know
How much longer I can do this
I'm standing still
But my hands are shaking

5...
This isn't good
I'm falling
From where I stood
This is wrong

4...
Why can't I stop
Why can't I move
Someone please help
But there's no one in the room

3...
What is happening to me
My heart is no longer pounding
Where am I
What am I doing

2...
I can't breathe
I can't think
What does this even mean
I won't be able to wash this off in the kitchen sink

1...
Everything is burning
I smell gas on my hands
My head is now spinning
Round and round and again

0...
Now I have a bomb technician
