And I think I should say
I did not find God, today.
I'm being told that my mind
isn't considered right and that
I will always lose the fight
that is life.
I think I should melt away
with the tangerine dusk;
float away with the
copper-colored dust.
And I shouldn't be mourned
or become a chore to the
people I should have warned:
I am a Godless void, ruined by
my own mindless self-indulgence.
For what it's worth,
it no longer hurts or can
be mistaken for
something bigger
for our Lord.
Maybe I should find a
Texas hole to melt inside;
a place to rest my burden,
fall apart and die.
