Bahlegahn

Bahlegahn
Hebrew for
"all mixed up"
These answers aren't good enough.

Why settle for miserable?
Refusing to acknowledge
Constantly scrutinizing
Oh, my blood boils!

Is this refining me?
dangling my feet over the edge
speaking all my days to blank stares
Who are not me!

Why talk?
My thoughts are foreign
my feelings invalid
I've said too much!

Your answers are for someone else.
They confuse
leave me askew
