Beau/day
I'm trying to start listening to myself.
Tell me sub-conscious, what are your aspirations?
What apparitions of ambition lie just yonder.
'Neath the tepid water. Still as they are. Others deeper still.
Why do I care.
Did she want me to know that she is going to stay with someone who hit her.
To think after 5 years, she was fucking some guy,
I come home, she thinks I had a knife because my hand was behind my back.
And you're staying with someone you barely know who hit you.
These women want streetcars.
I choose contentedness.
Crying these past days over things that have nothing to do with me.
In my own world its misery.
I find solace in my puppy. Baby Beau.
She is loving and is an outlet for my affection.
I waste time like its nothing.
If time is money then I live double poorly.
My days are not fulfilled.
Love is/was the only thing.
I feel as if I'm melting into nothing.
