Yesterday was one of those days I hope I experience only once in a blue moon
There was a crescent moon
I sat on the balcony and smoked my bowl
Filled the air with clouds
Emptied my heart of some of the ache
Reflecting is always a *****
You can make the scenario however you want to
As long as you believe that’s how it happened
Some days my battery isn’t charged
There was no coffee in my blood
Only black tar in my lungs,
Black tar in my heart
Yesterday was one of those days that reminded me that progress is subjective to how you feel
I felt like ****
The mirror was a ****** reflection of how I felt
My skin looked better than most days
My clothes are nice
And I stare at myself in the room that is mine
All these possessions
And I know I own nothing
I know it’s all meaningless
Disgusted from myself for buying into everything
I wish I didn’t
Yesterday was one of those days that reminded me how good I’ve become at lying to myself
It reminded me I don’t know myself
On the night of the crescent moon
I understood the struggle of being human
