Misconceptions
Eyeballs were melting
Glued to my shoes
Only time I looked up is when I fell back
Booze
Pool of liquor
Psychedelic sticker
The trip is longer
Often fall much quicker
Cigarettes until the mucus gets thicker
Try to be productive, a list of things to do
OK I finished it only one tick the clock has moved
Walk outside
Acidic clouds above my head
Not sure whether I have or need to go to bed
My thinking process rises faster than a trend
Speaking on it leads to unbalanced words
Dreams rolling off the curb
Crushed
Replacing dreams with pills then my face is red blush
Couldn’t toss this, telling myself it’s part of the creative process
A path, I knew I would cross it
Crucified to the idea of needing
Needing the success
Overwhelmed stampedes trampling me to death
Take a breath, the best I can
My name and writings made it successfully
Overdosing wasn’t part of the plan
