Thinking clearly sober

September 18, 2016
I sit, I smoke where did time go? Oh shit don’t trip I will forever be alone Yeah I come and go to places I don’t know, afraid of life sometimes I bother to even ask why Damn I lay unrested suddenly I am undressed but somehow I checked back in The cycle never ends Why am I high I guess it’s time to say good bye I awake from this trip where to begin I cry; wipe my eyes but I feel hollow deep inside Yeah I grip for my life for I done fucked up way to many times My parents are in disgust What happened, I’m still lost Oh shit, gone broke Siting thinking alone Of the past what have I done? Man Time in reverse I see all the people I’ve hurt Want to say sorry but I am still trying to fix what’s inside me. The monster inside wont given me a piece of mind Time after time I try to get out of this routine I’m trapped in Hell after all I think I’m better off to fall of the grid Still sorry for all the stupid shit I did To my parents don’t hate me, but please hear my scream and save me However I finally saw the light when I picked up a pen and paper Told my story hope I helped and saved somebody for poetry has saved me
