Where I'm from

Where did I come from?

 

I come from my safe yet murderous environment.

I come from a dreadfulness of what the future brings. 

I come from bedtime stories and heroin. 

 

Every year is like a blink of an eye in the mosaic of time. 

 

I've successfully suffered and secretly silence every thought. 

I've discovered endless possibilities of life and habits I've always had. 

I've acquired 4 new black bands without realizing anything. 

 

While wasting my time waiting for him he moved on,

and like all good things so must I.
