Whelmed

Was I crafted to bear the burden

To experience these moments so fully

Left to beg for a pardon

Repeated questions feeling like a bully

Is it so wrong to seek reassurance

That these spiraling thoughts of mine

Have not exhausted your endurance

The storm could be calmed with just one line

Now after weathering this wave

I sit here feeling so numb

Lost in thoughts dark as a cave

Berating myself as dumb

Why are you so resistant?

To cease using language so distant?
