I am trying to be...

I am

failing to climb

To where I aspire to be

There's trouble on the horizon

It lies Disguised

Just beyond the construct of her eyes

are signs

that say

Clear skies

as far as the eye can see

But I get that ole familiar sting

That feeling someone

Is lying to me...

Hopeless Romanticism

An explorers fantasy

Storm winds damaging

Like swords from a war

I'm mismanaging

Like before...

I'm yours

For mishandling...

I used to wake with wonder

Laying in wait

For what this planet would bring

So many high horses

So many holy rollers

So many rollercoasters

It's made me manic I think

I switch from panic to grief

Praying in some way

I can split this tab amicably

Walking away from so much pain

Sounds too much like a fantasy

To me however

outstanding

understandably

And I believe in God

But not according to man's

standard belief

Even though I'd pray

To get away

Everytime I ever ran from police

Don't judge me

And I won't ever judge you

If you should ever happen to fall

from a place of grace

And land on the streets

And you gotta do what you gotta do

so you and your family can eat...

Because I don't know about you...

But nothing has ever been handed to me

as my sanity runs rampant

And all my thoughts become poisoned

And rancid

until I'm just a hollowed out manikin 

and you can put your ear to my chest

but you

can't hear a beat

And I stand on mine

And would never stand for defeat

But your promises

are like a cancer to me

I call out to God but only you came

Answering me

My commander in chief

The sandman dancing with me

Romancing me to sleep

And it seems the answer is bleak

Growing weaker

Watching the image of me

Disappear in the mirror

it finally became clear...

That the answer is me
