If I Ever by Tissy Taylor

If I ever feel like a cog
In a giant machine
Or a room without
Any windows
Lost in a place where
There is no trace
Of being discovered

If there ever is cause for
Contemplating my life
Mindless, crazy doubt
Circumstances
A wasted place of
Unsheltered haste
A want to be alone

When I feel this world bring me down
Blind to when I can't see
What's in front of me
Where my silence
Can no longer breathe
Am I replaced
Let my candle flame fade


Mourning all our mornings before
Pictures in a reel, spin
Lost to yesterday
I am broken
Healing this open wound
Missing what is
Certainly in my way
