I exist.

I exist only through my words
And words are worlds to me
War of the Words
I war with myself
No matter what-
I always win, but
I always lose too.
Who do I want to be today.
How about anynomous.
Ill ghost through my day-
Transient – drifting through hours
Only a few Escape their clouds to
Open up my sands of life hour glass …
Possibly they are manifestation of my own mind.
These companions.
Spent the waking hours asleep
Living for the Night and the falling leaves
I often walk through dark woods of confusion
Lead by Styles on occation, but mostly on my own lately.
I am alone. If I choose to be.
And I suppose all these people that I pass
Everyday
I could open my sphere to them-
and they could sail off their islands to me …
but for some reason or another
we’re stranded. ship wrecked on our own islands.
with ourselves as company.
On occation- we land on some uncharted territory
And I wonder if all these passers by could ever change my life. its a joke to think they wouldnt.
Im positive they would all change my life.
for the better at that.
But who will ever know.
Certainly not I, or he, or she-
I suppose in the flashing blue light ..
I no longer battle madness, but sanity
And the realization- that all the cork screws
around which life winds- Just doesn’t Exist
Because- in my mind. Is where it remains.
Goodnight. see you when the sun rises.
Because tomorrow is the new mornings.
