TRIGGER WARNING I think maybe I want to die I think so, I'm not sure. Don't really think About cutting Just don't want to endure I guess that I Just know that when I see a gravel ledge I wonder if It might be nice To drive right off the edge I think maybe I want to die I could be wrong, I guess All I know is Sometimes I feel I live under duress I don't know what This feeling is– An illness, I suppose But living does Not give me life No scent holds to a rose I think maybe I want to die I think so, I don't know Oblivion Seems much preferred To more days moving slow Colors, they don't Seem as bright The sky–it starts to fade I wish it would Be over now And I could waste away I think maybe I want to die I almost did last week A flash of white And silver hues And tires start to squeak And when the car Came straight for me I promise I won't lie I had no thought For my own life I think I want to die.

Cadillac
I don't need a Mercedes Benz. I'd rather be surrounded by a group of friends. You'll never hear me wish for a Cadillac. I'd rather know someone has my back. If you offered me a Lamborghini, I'd trade it for a dinner and movie date. But they say love is what makes a Subaru a Subaru. That's why it's my dream car for me and you

Dream car
Like a dried out pen, you lay before me.     Perhaps you served a purpose once,     back in the days     where leaves still blew     through these Cadillac-filled streets. Vanished and forgotten, like a goldfish in a bowl without food.       You'll starve eventually       from the poverty of your mood. Like a torn photograph, the image of you is scratched, incomplete, a deflated soccer ball lying somewhere in the street.              A dried out pen         can write no more,            but it does not negate              the works it wrote                       once before.

Finding Purpose
that night, I saw bodies in the motel bathtub beckoning like a 50's Cadillac back seat beats and Father's bottle of snatched brandy up to bring back our youth and stay for one last whisper in a last-innocent ear the diner lights buzzing like a lifetime of loss to mistakes that can be little more or less than broken glass lies

Neal Cassady February 8 ,1926  -  February 4 , 1968 San Miguel D'Alene , Mexico Dead from extreme exposure Four days short of forty-two Only fitting , next to a railroad track He had many words to haul back The wolf sleeps next to the silver rail Howling at a silver moon that fell I see here he drove a ******* Cadillac Through the San Francisco streets With the top down Smiling free , it was meant to be Life is a quasar
