Tonight I realize something,
Something I should’ve already known.
I’m just a grown man,
Afraid to explore the unknown.

Life’s a battle field of possibilities
But the world is a scary place
So much if it to be discovered
And yet I can’t seem to find my place

As I snort coke,
A failed attempted to stay woke
I realize no number of friends,
No amount of money could ever
help me in my endeavor

If life’s about me
Why friends?
As I cut ties like threads
I tear up
I just want this to end

It’s late,
I need to sleep.
6 lines in I start to think.
Time I take my true drug
That evergreen.
