In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Helpless.”
Helpless…
more days than not
driving a car that is on auto-pilot
giving advice to people through one-sided glass
all they see is their reflection
all they hear is what they want to hear
trapped
unable to see the path through all the fog
grieving deep inside my shell
dreams floating high out of my reach
world crumbling around me
unable to see how I can help fix
not sure I have the glue to help rebuild
glue isn’t working on me
helpless…
yet not hopeless
I may not see the end of the rainbow
but at least I see colors
Inside the Shell
