OH SO HIGH
Time speeds up,
I slow down.
In my pain,
I started to drown.
I flew so HIGH,
With no fear.
The consequences
Were severe.
I ended up here
All alone.
With no place
To call my own.
Lived my life,
Doing time.
My eyes were open,
But I Was blind.
I remember
yesterday.
I know there is
A price to pay.
I have no clue
About tomorrow.
If I need it,
I have to borrow.
My body is broke,
My head screams.
My life shattered
to Smithereens.
How did time
Pass me by?
When I was flying,
Oh, so high.
Turbo1904 ?
I slow down.
In my pain,
I started to drown.
I flew so HIGH,
With no fear.
The consequences
Were severe.
I ended up here
All alone.
With no place
To call my own.
Lived my life,
Doing time.
My eyes were open,
But I Was blind.
I remember
yesterday.
I know there is
A price to pay.
I have no clue
About tomorrow.
If I need it,
I have to borrow.
My body is broke,
My head screams.
My life shattered
to Smithereens.
How did time
Pass me by?
When I was flying,
Oh, so high.

TILTED MY WORLD
PoetDebbie Middaugh
I really like the confessional tone of this poem. If it's autobiographical, it's a testament to survival. If it's fictional, you’ve done a remarkable job of channeling authentic experience.
