MY LIFE



To sleep, to dream, to wonder all in the voice of the thunder, to love, to hate, to always being late. I lost my hair while thinking about my fate.

Why, after taking 100 pills with whiskey, Chasers, why am I sleepwalking in another man's home? I swear, when I entered, I touched the holy water, I said my prayer, and there was no one around. I swear

What is carved in the stone and kissed by the sun? What is a person to do while they die alone? What are these flowers blooming on this forgotten grave? What is to happen when the eyes and mind do not care to behave
