Consumed

Pull the blanket over my head
Drowning in the memories
They linger by my bed
Slowly creeping closer
Forcing me to look
The weight feels like a boulder
This monster cannot be shook
Breathing deep beneath the crushing
Rage boils up inside me
The blood is rushing
Anxiety and fear
Resentment and despair
Some days I don't want to care
