Whenever I dream, that is the only time I feel at peace—
Sadly because I’m sleeping.
I don’t have a worry in the world except the worry of myself.
Nothing I do seems to be enough.
There is always another step.
If I could travel back in time I’d travel to the place where your path crossed mine.
If given the option to travel down the road where we crossed or to choose another path I’d ask nature to start me anew.
So much has happened and I’ve lost myself along the way.
So many tears of heartache
So many words erased but we left muddied along the way.
If I were to leave this world, I would not be missed.
Life would go on and the world would finally heal.
A few pills in my belly and I’ll go like a silent breeze.
