Blank Memories

sometimes i sit and think in a sense

then take another sip
i could feel that thirst wedged in between in my my ribs
like a switchblade
but today
i put the glass down 
crawling up from the bottom
of the rocks
waking up, only one sock
try to find my shades
hide my eyes from the rays
but i guess i forgot what it takes
to relate in this state
so i write a couple lines
then it's off to the daily grind
days and nights spent 
wondering the possibilities
of where the time went
and i'll do this for self
not for anyone else
im over trying to make this place a home
time to go
reflecting on the essence of the message
socializing, getting high with the lows
put your sights on me now
whats the meaning of life
its more than what you probably do
dig deep enough 
you'll find buried right inside of you
talk about adversity
nothing can ever be as diverse

as the space that you take in your place in this universe

let your light radiate on your good days
and appreciate it when the clouds form the rain
because today
im putting that cup right down 
im too proud to be stuck 
in a corner where i left the keys
finding myself in a hole where its hard to breathe.

Thankyou man! I've always been a fan of your writing in fact I think it's your words that brought me to this page.

Great tale! I love the thoughts you string together where the past meets the present and shades the future the yellowed gold of Rayban's. This kinda chimes down the line like Beatles Day in the life.

It's weird reading something that so closely resembles your day to day!

I gotta start catching up with you...
