Mind Over Matter
By Ashley O’Hare
Lord help me.
I have been chasing dreams
for far too long.
–
Please save me
from the road of disappointment
that I am on.
–
Just stop me
before I reach the point
of no return.
–
Save my heart
while it still has the capacity
to love and to see light.
–
My body
can only take so much
before collapsing.
–
Mind over matter
to get through the day
despite the pain.
