Just in for this season, darkness and light
They cascade over the hillside, that drown in
Moonlight. The jewels that fill the sky are
Scattered remnants of a pretty dream, one
That apparently won't come true. This is the
Meaning, never use the words "I do," unless
You really know you're ready to.

I regret the fact that I struggled
trying to find who I am
And I lie to myself and say,
''I do the best that I can''
Shrug it off like it ain't nothing
like it’s out of my hands
Then get ticked off whenever I see it affecting my plans

I got places I need to go
I got people I need to see
I got plans to change the world,
but first I need to ***.
I'm in my 50s. My bladder ain't what it used to be.

I'll study later.
I'll study after this.
I'll sleep later.
I'll just do this later.
I'll see you later?

I'm free after this.
I'm good if you're good?
I'm alright whenever,
I'm looking forward to it.
I'm gonna call you, so stay just wait.

You're up for it?
You're free tomorrow?
You're free next week?
You're free next month?
You're free next year?

When do you wanna meet?
When can you come?
When can I see you?
When you're up, call me.
When is it?

Sorry, I can't make it.
Sorry, I'm busy.
Sorry, I have other plans.
Sorry, I'm sick.
Sorry, I overslept.
Sorry, I'm with someone else.

to the plans that I've made but never been executed, to all the excuses I've used and gotten prior to the plans made, to my own self, for giving in to anxiety.

Always out of place,
And looking for more.
I have many hopes and dreams,
Yet they never soar.
In need of a push,
Some motivation.
But all it ever does
Is turn into frustration.

Wake up with adrenaline,
But it never lasts.
All I ever think about
Is how I failed in the past.
I’m stuck in a rut
And can’t get out.
I feel like I can do it
But then my head fills with doubt.

I try and try again,
But I always fail.
Do I try again?
Or keep walking down this trail.
Everywhere I look,
I see success.
I keep going nowhere
Even though I try my best.

Tired of being comfortable
In the same place.
All of this talent and ideas
Going to waste.
It’s time to get to work,
These words I must embrace.
No more sitting on the sidelines,
It’s time to join the race.
