The Basketball Diaries I’m losing my faith in humanity, and I’m just as much a part of the problem, here I’ll explain an example, it involves The Basketball Diaries, went to a rooftop cinema in Budapest, there I met two beautiful girls, they brought me up to the VIP, fed me drinks and helped me feel again, it was a bit surreal, on that rooftop, watching Leo on the big screen, it’s always surreal seeing someone on screen that I’ve actually met, Leo’s a cool guy, trying to save the world even though it all seems hopeless, anyways there I was watching Leonardo DiCaprio, play the starring role of a strung out poet, the parallels are there, but my addiction is not ****** yes I’m strung out, but my drug of choice is women friends, so when the two girls in the VIP, got closer and closer to me, I feel deeper and deeper in love, because I love unconditionally without apologies, we went back to my place, I put some videos on my projector screen, I almost had *** with one of them, the one I though would be my girlfriend, her friend interrupted, girl interrupted, boy interrupted, she said she wanted a guy to have *** with too, so we went back out, albeit reluctantly, to a cliche club with a bunch of tourist, so my girl’s friend could get some exotic **** it was then I realized, as the two danced together, trying to lure in a man, just to get him inside of them, that humanity is truly lost, and apart of me died, right there on that dance floor, I felt the club, see, I don’t want to find a girl to just fck at night, I don’t want a dawn goodbye, I want mimosas with my lover at brunch the next day, I guess I’m too much of a romantic, that’s what I get for being a poet, feeling strung out like Leo, just searching for another fix, just chasing that first high, that first real love, but all I find out here these days, is ******* and hoes that are counterfeit, fck it, I’m so done, maybe I should become a monk, my life is too blessed, to mess with these girls that couldn’t care less, I miss, humanity, and I watch it sparkle and fade, as I add another piece of me to this charade, a piece of me died on that dance floor, and I probably deserved the pain that brought, and call me naive or whatever, but I still feel that not all hope is lost, see, I’m losing my faith in humanity, and I’m just as much a part of the problem, here I’ll explain an example, it involves The Basketball Diaries… ∆ Aaron LA Lux ∆
