Passing through the lively hood of the dawn and we look back and wonder what could have been done pieces falling into our hands now with answers but when needed in the past nothing made sense Passions of over turned unions bliss into view Over thrown ruptures of candy coated follows as we set forth for a day in the sun with clouds looming over Scratching your head you ask does it make sense, this? But does any of it make sense When waking up daily and wondering couldn't there be more When tossing and turning in the night uncomfortable with your life you ask," why worse then better?" One moment happy but most part sad When you planned things so carefully in the past at least you had When goals and dreams were high as a kite you gloated happily with your life But now after overachieving it all you lay here in silence due to your fall and wonder in the end is unhappiness all that your owed after working so diligently to get to where you are Seeing this daily as I analyze many walking back and forth with their little black suite cases little black coats and jackets of success and then they go running back home for a glass of liqueur And you ask so this is finesse? Young and naive to maybe what is true I sit here in wonder of what I can do Do I follow the rest ? Or stand up for what is a dream and fight for what I see It can't be covered in ice cream and goodies Nothing is easy, but happiness can be sought If doing in what you truly believe? So in wonder I ask myself follow the pack Or follow my back? Will I be placed six feet under with memories pasted above ceilings of all times with glory? Or another dead family member with flowers thrown reluctantly over my grave in pity? So maybe difference is good , the uncommon ones But in the end they are the ones who are remembered And not just another dead soul being laid to rest with nothing left to show but a bunch of kids and a bank account filled with stress due to overworking yourself which in turn, returned you to dust I do not need shine or wealth, just a pen and some paper for my health |
