I wish it was easier for me
To say what's on my mind
But my thoughts are like moths
And my brain is a light
It only turns off when liquor fills my stomach
And my thoughts can escape through my mouth

I wish it was easier for me
To embrace all I am blessed with
My mothers passion roars inside me
And I have my father's patience
To make it all balance.

I am in the middle of an intersection
And I can't seem to figure out
Which way I want to turn.
