I’m trying to smile, Please forgive me

A glimpse of my fear

I see satellites pass high above this earthly realm
I wish to escape these feelings, I’m overwhelmed
The snow that’s long melted away to the past
The foot prints I made in sand not to last
In these moments of clarity I find my peace
But get taken by the undertow of the machine  
I search for hope, and guidance, and answers
I pray that love will cure the world’s cancers
So though this all hurts, I’m trying to smile
Please forgive me if I forget once and awhile
I miss myself and what I stand for
I miss the thrills I used to explore
I guess it’s more complicated than not
And wonder what I gain smoking so much pot
Kiss my forehead mother, and hold me please
Tell me I can forgive myself for all of these things
Tell me I’m loved and it will never be different
No matter how I feel or try to picture it

(2013)

I need a longer fuse. I'm getting to be an old crab too young in life.
