Finally

I’ve lived an interesting life

One most would not believe

I have told so many of many crazy nights

And also how it took its toll on me

Stories, I’ve got them

Scars, inside and out I bare them

I can’t compete with my own mind

Thoughts keep racing all the time

So long it seems I’ve been like this

Was there a time that I should miss?

I’m told I have a talent,

A gift of word they say

What does that get me

When I live crumbled on my knees?

Breathing is a nightmare,

Waking plain and simple torturing

Gave up hoping

For a return to a sane reality

So as I’ve grown tired and weary

Please don’t be sad and teary

When I’m gone please realize

I’m better off for one reason

I don’t have to bare the lies.
