Foothold

Time passes
without resolution,

Pain continues
without evolution.

Character trait,
deadly wait,

Til necessarily
escape ensues.

Lose track,
foothold;

Come back,
foretold,

But not realized.
It's been months
since I've been sane,
talk psychiatric in vain,
though I'm not,
never have been one to complain.

Now a traveling side show.
