Sometimes

There is no beginning

There is only sometimes

I cannot find myself

Looking for me, but I am right here

Muddled thoughts

Never coming out right

Hoping that the next word

Will convey the explosion inside

The effect is never there

Like I am running a paintbrush

Across the paper

Only to find out that it holds no paint

Only water

Where did you go?

Have you even ever been there?

An ideal held on life

Maybe to make it seem less pointless

Biding time in the sorrows and intrigues it holds

Nothing real

Like a film with no plot or ending

I heard myself say once

That life was for the brave and bored

How full of it I was

How somewhat right I was

Sometimes the clouds part

And beauty is able to come through

When no one else is looking

It shows itself

Like the painting

I have been trying to create

But as no one else sees that one moment

No one will hear the words

That I don’t even know how to say

Soon motivation will be found lacking

Creativity is already left wanting

To say what?

What am I trying to reach?

Where am I trying to take myself?

There is a sometimes for everything

Except sometimes I would just like to know

Sometimes I would like to make it through

Just one day

Just one day

Without that breakdown inside

Just one day

When a tear won’t fall

For Him

Because of family

For friends

Just one day

Days happen sometimes

Don’t they?
