Envying God
Envying God
Heart in the past
Mind in the future
Body stuck in the daily
Wishing
Envying
The omnipresence of the God
Gunshot wounds upon reminiscence of what was
To drag a limp body through the daylight
As if zombies could actually occur
Churning, clicking, whirling,
The mind 'not now's & 'but soon's the today away
Living in a future of which you naively trust you remain a constant variable
Yearning for the past to return
Parasites
Leaving your body just a shell
Live in the now enough to know you envy God
Self righteously
Selfishly
Accept the gift of today
Use it
Shape it
Into something for which to be grateful for in the now
