Whatever

It all goes away

Time, memories, present thoughts and friends

Everything dissipates

Like a whisper in the wind

I chased them for years

Wanting in on what they do

I’m always disappointed

Losing trust and sentiment too

Memories and thoughts

Shadow boxing with my pain

Laughing hysterically

While slow punching me insane

I have a smile tucked safely away

In the lower creases of my pocket

Along with hope and anticipation

Lying in wait

And I can’t stop it

Absence of satisfaction

Like putrefied stains on my bed sheet

Part of realities not beheld

When I’m silent they speak

My heart hangs on tight

To the emotional rollercoaster

That’s all

The end

Everyone good night
