All of the best parts
                                                   Make you sorry

All of the worst parts
                                                   Make you strong
One long disciplined life and at the end,
I told you, I’m taking my shoes off and jumping on in.

Sometimes

you miss
things that weren't
particularly good


for you.
And we all hate that you do, but lie as guilty.
Johnny Dust Mar 2022
Talk down on yourself whenever possible
My life is **** because I deserve it, right?


You must have done something real bad

Its nearly impossible
for you to cry now
Repeat to yourself that, “they’re not really gone”

The unforeseen has a way

of being                                                        

exactly what it is.
When it catches up to you

I used to see in color,
now I see a little less,
I used to try for banquet,
These days I try my best
If I could get a little rest. If I could get a little rest. If I could only get a little rest.
Johnny Dust Mar 2022
Strike the match
And star the fire
It’s impossible now

To walk around without the liars
Always on the prowl

It’s almost enough to cuss and shout
At the stars tonight

But we both know it’s not a lie
I miss you

if somebody is lousy to everybody but you,
some day you'll be everybody too
