DEEP SHADOWS AND BRILLIANT HIGHLIGHTS



"DEEP SHADOWS AND BRILLIANT HIGHLIGHTS"
EPILOGUE

What I write may not make sense, most of my thoughts dont.
How I feel may not be well accepted by many
It doesnt matter,
what I know is what I believe in
And even having my better judgment clouded by this State,
I fight for what I want.
I fight against what is disposable.

And in the end,
we all wake up every morning
wishing we layed beneath a different sky,
living a different life
Closing our eyes at the end of the day
yearning for that same change
we badly yearned the day before....

...Clarity is what we need.

{ Metamorphosis } (all over again)

I probably need to stop
Take another breath, and just think.

I’m guessing I must come to an exact understanding of what is happening to me
before I lose my complete sense of direction.

I came back different.
I came back wanting and caring about different matters…
I feel like I’m trapped in my own shell (and I know I probably am…),

Surrounded by things I no longer recognize or relate to.
Every joke, any talk or event seems completely banal,
No longer creating that same effect on me as it used to a month ago…
No one really notices it, lives are just so filled with issues
so futile and transitory as the little grains of sand on the beach…

Futile. Ordinary. Non-captivating.
That’s how everything seems to me now
I know not if its caused by you,
strange distant presence that I now crave
More than anything else
Or if its just that time to leave…

Move on. To bigger things
To some other place where life has more meaning
than here in a single pathetic weekend.…

Change
it isn’t always for the best…
But it can’t be worse that being caught up
in the same old “this”.
