My Life

My life is a hodgepodge of broken dreams and broken promises

A tight lipped memorial to lost love and broken hearts

I walk in circles just to make myself feel on many days

Falling in love with that same blonde lady daily between fits of melancholy and exuberance

Morose and silent as everyone pretends not to notice

My life is a rollercoaster riding a ferris wheel at full speed under a full moon at midnight

It’s exciting to watch but I often feel I want to vomit

I try watching my step and my karma

That’s pretty fucking hard when your sarcasm has a mind if its own

Even harder when you have to sit back and watch people you love get hurt

over and over

and over

My life is a bitch

but it’s my bitch

You know nothing about her

You hear a lot of rumors and lies

I have the scars tattooed on my arms showing where I’ve been

Just like bus vouchers

Yeah, my life’s a mess some days

Sometimes my life is stressful and black

I spend my nights wishing I was dead

and my days thanking the Universe that I’m alive

My life is a hodgepodge of broken dreams and broken promises

but it’s my life

Fuck you

Get your own
