Poems
Aug 2013
20 in 2012
Thrown into this stream of life
Drowned in rhetoric
For the money, for the system
What is that we are living for?
Molded by the system
Back to sand and earth we go
Liquor bottles and cigarettes
Wasted away, do you feel the buzz of life?
Joints after joints, I droned on about lifeβs meaning to you
And you to me
And ahhh, the ecstasy of ecstasies!
Hit after hit, again and again
The moon fades
As we smile, laugh and cry
Cry βtil we hear nothing
But our own heartbeat
Ba-dup ba-dup ba-dup
On and on it beats
To loud electronic music
And we dance
Like we fear the first ray tomorrow will bring
Ba-dup ba-dup ba-dup
Now tell me
What happens when it all stops
I wrote this last year. I was 20.
