Now
My days of trying to impress are gone
Back when society guided me like a pawn
Down a never ending road of pressure
Hardened with the continuous lectures
Of what I should have become
Now look … I’m just a bum
To some … scum
Now stuck alone in a darkened room
Surprised by how it hasn’t become my tomb
Parents and friends constantly questioning
How their voices are deafening
Why …
How come …
When …
I don’t know.
I don’t care
Not anymore.
