Repeating cycle of light / no light
Feeling so lonely — can't even write poems,
But I'll try nonetheless so future me knows this:
I went to a world of new people
just out of boredom, I guess,
or was at this point I already feeble?
Makes no difference in the end
for I replaced person I talked to
with the one I have left
And now I just want to undo what I've done
But how can I trust this broken version of self
When the whole me, clearly, decided to run.
(I really have have no grasp on what's going on
Can't think ahead, can't tell what is wrong)
If I pull the trigger — silver bullet kills me so quick
I'll feel good for a while, but then I'll wake up buried too deep
I'll feel even worse — another bullet to put me back to my feet
And again and again
Untill there are no bullets left and nothing to fix.
But there are options to that; should not be thinking too quick
For, what if being buried that long had taught me to dig?
True, I will never see daylight again
But I will toss all remaining shells
and live with the bullet in head
that relieved me from pain
But what if I refrain from the gun
and walk in the rain
Covered in mud I'll make umbrella of clay
Reach the first river, make myself clean
Then build a house in which I will lean
The rain might not stop
but it won't bother me in
And it all sounds good for one
But I have a feeling I had it before
So why can't I answer:
Where did it go?
