Such A Mess

disassemble these words to find the meaning

if meaning there is at all in these rambling writings

as whispered words bring the sounds of doom

a single piece of good intentioned advice

a simple lack of communication

turn into a disastrous effect

do I just choose these places of hardship?

or do I bring the hardship with me?

am I a force of change, just by merely existing?

or do I force the change by simply speaking?

why can nothing go smoothly?

why can no plans I make go through without a hitch?

everywhere I go, things fall apart

people fall apart, lives go to pieces

not as bad as one might think, but when I come

beware, for your life will change

for better or worse, is yet to be seen

but I bring with me the tide of change

nothing around me is settled

even if it had been moments before

constant turbulence makes me wonder

what am I doing wrong?

what can I do different

everything I try, something goes wrong

everyone I meet, is a fleeting ghost through my life

three years was my longest friendship

if friendship you could call it

it was more of us using each other for things we wanted

money, drugs, sex, a place to stay, a person to complain to

someone who was at least there when you wanted them to be
