Underneath Sunny Skies (part 1)

As I lay near,
broken glass, on dirty wooden floors,
police sirens shake the whole block-
I think about my life's path.
From the time I was young
i've lived the life of the "thrill"
happiness has never consumed me long,
i'd rather mope around in ridiculous
anger or better yet self-pity.
Only the blackest of rivers

and the cloudiest skies

hold interest in this clouded mind.

Wrong choices are often made

choosing the more arduous way

is often a welcomed challenged.

 

I've been searching for feeling

viewing smiles only lasts a moment

when danger is waiting next door!

"Troubled youth" was a label

heard all too much,

as kids played

I was searching for a way to escape.

Daydreaming has become

a way of life, a pastime for the mind.

Sometimes I wonder if 

i'm missing out?

If I am, I guess it's best

to move at my own time.

    sometimes within those paths we weave
    we are left but with memories and moods
    that set the stage of how we see things.
    Interesting work here my friend!
    Keep enning on one stroke at a time!

    Hmmmmmmm

    you seem to amaze me everytime you write.... this piece explains a lot of people out here in this wild and weird world... as of matter of fact, when I went through my depression years, this is about how I felt.Especially the daydreaming part. We all need an escape to feel loved or wanted. Excellent piece, I feel it was well written. Most diffently worth the fight with yourself.

    Love to you my dear friend.
