Confession to my family......

I dont dance and remember when... Like a country ballad I sat and wrote our future.....

Ash trays and bottle caps are surrounded by crumpled looseleaf melted bees wax remindds me of the light i put out...

Like the only warmth in my desperate dungeon simplicity now i understand like a Einstein of obvious....

I frame my failures and hang the posts of social media near my melencholy motivations....

Desperate attempts now rely on the decline of my terror strapped sometime to become your worst nightmare...

2 am shifts and puch cards of never there left me tired of successful failure...

Cellular connection and text wars now fill my only connection when im not out of the service area......

Isnt wealth suppose to be your accept of my last mistake? Cold sandwiches Vlts double ryes supplement my misery....

A juggling act of balance now wears out the clown beneath my circus....

As the reality of a sublime future lights the mornings I leave... Sunset just means the day cannot sell my darkness its light...

As I forget how to smile and you remember how to dance....

know that staring at myself in motel mirrors and reflective gazes....

I know that deep inside im the one who needs changes...
