Once Upon A Time

Rhyme time redline
 half gram hotline feeling fine
 I seek I search too much to find
 This endless maze a tweakers mind
 On and so on it goes and goes
 Now I see the change in me
 What is done is done it shall now be
 Forever a part of my history
 I can't remember to forget
 What it was led me astray
 My mind so dead from these damn daze
 Will I ever turn the page
 I've lost it all in this ice age
 It's a game you're not playing you're being played
 So on and on the hustle goes when will it stop
 I just don't know
 I knew by now I'd surely be dead
 For reasons unknown I live instead
 Ever will I see the error of my ways
 Ever will I see clear through the haze from these days
 Hell if I know only time will tell
 God owns my soul but I'm still here in hell
 It's my own damn fault
 I should've long since learned
 How do I now get back
 From this the point of no return
 Maybe I'll win break free from this sin
 Then have victory over this life of sh*t
 Maybe the lessons I've learned
 With all the scars that I've earned
 Will help me up out this rock bottomless pit
 Where sinners are many and winners are few
 When death would be rest and
 To live is to lose
 Where the choices we made
 We mistakenly choose
 What is done is done did
 By our don't and our dues
 Where this story starts at the end
 Of another disaster's last chapter
 It begins with
 " Once Upon A Time "
 But doesn't end in
 Happily ever after

Author's Note
I had heard that Kurt Cobain's letter could be found online, in the process of searching I was redirected to DU Poetry. I've always enjoyed reading poetry since my youth, as I've grown so has my fascination with literature and it's correct structure as well as the growing diverse vocabulary of English language. I had written three poems more like jotted down and I knew this was where I could publish them. I do my best to live a normal life with the personal struggles I have but it's no secret what I do and by choosing not to discuss, brag, advertise, inform or announce my business is not secrecy it's privacy. That's what so great here. I can openly and honestly write down how I feel in privacy without fear of being gossiped about and It is what is and that's that. It's therapeutic for me.
