Optimystic Posted January 20, 2013 I just wanna free my mind… and free my time… I just wanna be able to see this time…. I’ll find… I just wanna be, What I wanna be this time…. My kind… I just wanna live - what I thought I left behind… I want to be able to open my eyes… reveal lies… I want to be successful without countless tries… I want to go to sleep at night, until I rise… Without having to hear the sound of my own cries… I guess I want to be better in every way, Defeating anxiety, despair and the gray… A colorful life, for sure is the way… What I found is empty, what can I say? I guess I can’t say, Can I say I’ve been wrong… And so now I realize the pain doesn’t belong… I just can’t keep singing the same old song… The song I’ve been living way too long… Can’t help but remember , some things that I’ve done… A long list of battles, some lost, and some won… But what I’ve learned from every single one… Is that there’s never been the right time to run… Stand strong but always pick your battles… Don’t waste your time with leeches & tattles… Most snakes are silent, some have rattles… But all snakes know the creek w/all the paddles… And all leeches know where to find the softest spot…. And don’t you know the softest is the first to rot… Consider Kennedy and how he got shot… He died a man but what has History Taught… The truths written down but what seems to endure… Are the potions and snake oils being passed as the cure.. They haven’t taught us truth, that which I know for sure… Because deep in your heart you know the word is pure, So pure it can’t be written on pages… by sages… And it can’t be taken from the singing birds in their cages… The truth has been carried by ritual throughout the ages… At times found amongst those paid minimum wages… Truth Rages… A Lie is not a philosophy…. Truth touches your heart while a lie is felt quite softly… But unlike the truth, a lie grows quite loftily… And when multiplied can become quite costly… The truth is just truth, but whats known when it prevails… Is that the shine from its light, it never fails… It only gets brighter it never pales… Twisted versions of the truth are often called tales… Being that I understand the truth I feel enlightened.. I still can see that some will never let the fight end… Or is it in fact that one day my minds eye will bend… And I’ll have the opportunity to live life again from start to end… I always wonder, have I drifted from the place that I started… Have I really been matured since the first time I was carded? Has society justified being martyred…or is the concept purely retarded… And is it possible, can I communicate with my dearly departed… Don’t get me started This is just the way that I Question…. If you don’t ask the Question, Then you’re letting less In… Sometimes the right Questions will cure mental congestion… But plenty of bullshit available with nice fronts that they’re dressed in… And if you’re buying the fronts then you’re letting the rest in… Eliminate those and then just let the best in… At times it is best to confide in a best friend… Which are the ones you often see and hear from again… But the reasons you see and hear from them depend… A lot of them will come and go like a played out trend… 100 % of true friendships will never come to an end… In fact the only thing that can truly outlive time is a friend… These crazy eyes have seen too many of those bonds expire… I’ve been utterly disgusted by the qualms of a persistent liar… I’ve learned in the most painful way not to get too close to the fire… I had to understand the old me, before the old me could retire… I got to a point in my depression, when my life was in a bind… I thought it died, found regression…and the pain was on rewind… It was then that I found “expression”, is what could put my troubles behind… But that’s not the only thing that this inquisitive mind would find… ... ...... ... I found that the hallways of truth, with these deep words are lined… Free my Body, Free my soul, Free my spirit, & Free my mind… 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
