Brain

Arman Hoque 1977 (Winnipeg)



Brain


I know there’s something wrong with my brain.
I get reminded of it again and again.
Nothing assuages the ongoing pain.
Life looks darker when it starts to rain.

I know sometimes  it’s hard to be around me.
Sometimes I wish of myself I could be free.
There’s no giver of wishes, no dream to come true.
No thinking out of this….  
Only temporary bliss.

You attacked the one thing I most prized.
Shaitan, why am I not surprised?
You used me against me,
Abused me confused me.

My brain is working against me,
Yet in this moment I am free…. :)
There’s something that went wrong.
I take the meds to keep me strong.


There’s something that just ain’t right.
Something something I just can’t fight.
These words I leave to those who read,
I can’t be normal even if you plead.
