Spectator
I wonder how purgatory feels like
maybe it feels how I feel right now
I was given gifts
love that will never quit
and though sometimes it's agitating
I have a job that I enjoy
still I feel stuck
like my story has been written
and rewritten
nothing is new
no one cares for a middle age man
my brain rattles
thinking of ways to feel important
guess it's a lack of purpose
yes, I could be a fool
try to befriend people
play the whole adulting game
yet that story I've seen
it usually leaves me broken
so I drown myself in my hobbies
in hopes to feel momentary fulfillment
I go places
see great sights
sharing those moments with my love
don't get me wrong
it's bliss
yet I wish I could share that with others
seems everyone has their own life
one that has no room for me
I know the truth
the world belongs to the youth
and I'm at that age
well I'm just a spectator
maybe it feels how I feel right now
I was given gifts
love that will never quit
and though sometimes it's agitating
I have a job that I enjoy
still I feel stuck
like my story has been written
and rewritten
nothing is new
no one cares for a middle age man
my brain rattles
thinking of ways to feel important
guess it's a lack of purpose
yes, I could be a fool
try to befriend people

yet that story I've seen
it usually leaves me broken
so I drown myself in my hobbies
in hopes to feel momentary fulfillment
I go places
see great sights
sharing those moments with my love
don't get me wrong
it's bliss
yet I wish I could share that with others
seems everyone has their own life
one that has no room for me
I know the truth
the world belongs to the youth
and I'm at that age
well I'm just a spectator

Perhaps become a mentor and share your experiences... Many young need guidance.

For sure. And yes, I guide the young ones in my life. I think there just comes a point in life where you truly on your own. Or maybe that's just how it feels.

What a spectator does, is does he marry theory, and practise theory or does he marry theory and marry practise successfully.
I'm an empty spectator very grouchy!
And I love this death life death poem, it made me feel you and it was so cold smooth, adjacent to repetitive his sin but no one know what's it's neither does he, therefore NO SIN. Loved it keep on writing , please!
