That One K Kid
When the water flows
It runs with rippled chaos
And endless beauty
The blue body reflected surface
Crashes to white against
The hardened rocks of death
Yet it still sprints at full speed
Despite the river's debris

The persistence of the current
Enlightens the perseverance within me

That One K Kid
I read myself through
The morning haze
With weary bones
And cloudy daze
Then the afternoon
Passed me by
In my journal wrote
"Let me cry"
But the sun fell
In great orange colors
And in my soul laid
The warmth of 21 summers
Soon after the celestial sparkles
Filled my eyes full
Sitting with my heavy eyes
I knew I was a fool

That One K Kid
Pricked with the needle
Swirls of the mind
Portal to the outworld
Life's meaning, undefined
Rush of sensation
"Good people" don't know
That part of themselves
They don't want to show
But I wasn't born the same
With the ability to hide
All the painful emotions
And shadows that flourish inside
So I live differently
Than my idolized peers
With the ***** of a needle
At the glance of their sneers
I drift from the world
Temporarily covering the stain
And finally for a little while
Escaping the burning pain
