Time keeps on

Several Wednsdays Ago, Thoughts
Sometimes it’s hard to believe I’m only twenty-two
The last seven years have felt like an eternity
And I can barely remember back past my preteen years
I’ve always been weird
More mature than my years
Still yearned for acceptance from my peers
But now I’m all grown
My heart sheltered in stone
It doesn’t take much to break it anymore
Once I let down my guard
But it’s all fair
O’ve taken too much for granite
I get so easily attracked by her stare
Even in my mind
In the poring rain at night
Rolling with the brights on
Almost forgot I was driving
And now I sit and look back at this mess
My slow motion panic attack train wreck
But I do much better now
Wear masks
Sufficate my pain
Argue with my mind until I nrrf to medicate my brain
But I think I am doing fine
Got a promotion at a job I can stick with
I pay the bills
I barely scrape by
I live my life
And I love my life
That’s why it’s so fucked up
A life full of fucked up situations
I’ve done that
And I’ve seen some shit no one would forget
And I’ve been at the end of my rope
But my minds made up
I won’t take the easy way out
I no longer seek the answers
I just make my own
Because no answer is still and answer
And it’s no tthe one I was hoping for
So I may just rebuild these stone walls
Look to the future
Keep trying hard
Because time only brings more to chew on
The good
The bad
The shady
The clear
Its not what they teach you out there
It’s what you kow inside your chest
Between the pains
The bliss
And the ‘god bless this soul”
Try not to be forgotten
Try to be heard
Fuck it
Try to be happy
That’s the only cure
