So here I go again, looking for a reason to rhyme, Placing measures in rhythm, time after endless time. My brain keeps moving, why won’t it allow a break? Just won’t let me rest, whatever happened to give and take? Is there anything left to say, penning yet another thought? If souls are for sale, tell me, what is this thing I had bought? Bouncing from emotions, to and fro, the thing that I should let you know, Is I am subject to change at a moment’s notice, who knows how this will go? Smiling and laughing, socializing at will, sharing a warm embrace, Frowning and cursing, clenching my fist, contortions distort my face. Nothing ever lasts very long, emotions are as shallow as I do feel, I’m sitting in on the biggest poker game, but it’s never my turn to deal. So what is the deal, with this life we live, seems to be a cruel sort of joke, Everything was going fine, happiness did abound, but alas, then I awoke. From a dream, or was it a nightmare, is there a difference between the two? It starts to make sense to me, then it’s gone, I almost thought I really knew.
