Time Traveller

Karla Barnes

I feel like a time traveller

Not physically

But emotionally

From laughter to full of rage in seconds

No warning nor triggers

Anger bubbling inside

With little control over thoughts or actions

I don’t know why I feel like this

But I can’t stand nor stop it

I feel out of control

Like I’m the lead puppet of a show

With a blink of an eye, I travel again

This time I’m emotional

Tears streaming and full of guilt

The cycle soon begins again

The stress of travelling is unbearable

Not just for me, those I love too
