Before the sun returns

by @Kene

Before the sun returns bask in a deluded state tell myself a thousand lies about past mistakes, what's at stake? Before the sun returns I'll doomscroll 'til my eyes bleed satiate my soul's greed my better self he does pleed. Before the sun returns ambitions war with self image anxiety disguised as sobriety so I'm rendered timid. Before the sun returns suburbs will be painted through silver-lit streets and wishes for new silver spoons. Before the sun returns I'll crane my neck to the brink Stare into the sky where stars wink Boeings blink. Before the sun returns I'll be submerged in serenity find contentment in my existence but only temporarily..
