Clarity

CLARITY
When did I CHANGE
when did I lose sight of myself
In the mid-December of youth gone by
The many cold Februarys that fall off the calender
I WAS ONCE SOMETHING, AND NOW i feel nothing
When did I stop feeling, how did this numb settle in buried so deep in my bones,buried so deep in my heart.
I have walked these streets looking at the cracks in the pavement
Wondering if somehow it would tell me a tale of my own soul
That last part of me that I do not really understand.
The lack of knowledge, lack of sanity.
Far off rain clouds gather
Filling the sky with an ominous black feel
That empty's the street, people gather together to conjure warmth.
I stayed outside waiting for the downpour.
Waiting for that unforgiven cold
The kind of cold that wakes you up.
So, you have to feel it ,feel it all.
