Analysis of I Try to Read...between the lines
I put the pen to page,
Because one day,
The
"Irrational fears"
Will come true;
The nightmare,
A life.
I put the ink to tree,
Because one day
It will fall,
And the window will be used for safety
The seatbelt not enough,
Nor Saturn's whip if milky way.
I put feelings in words
Because I do not know
How else to face
My demons,
Whom I try repeatedly
To disown.
I put the pen to page
Because it is
How I live.
I
Breathe
Through nightmares
To prepare
For
One day's
One day.
