a simple story
didn't really believe
I would make it this far
starting a new life
with something more inside
what is this feeling?
is it hope? is it strength?
whatever it is
seems to have helped
put my demons to bed
and the skeletons to sleep
i don't want perfection
i merely write stories
of what is around
and all there is to see
beauty is inside
and not what you see
hope is a choice
but then so is fear
life is too short
for you to live up
to what others expect
of you to become

And in the end, it is an autobiography that only we can truly read fully, yet we can share snippets with others.

You share the best
What wave has come over you?
What drug do you do?
Can it be passed along?
maybe by poem or a song?

A wave of realization that there is more to life than what most of humanity believes in and as far as drugs I have had my fair share although they've had little to do with my eventual mindset thank you for the praise by the way
