Mis-taken...

Mis-taken...

Dragging among the days, I'm falling again, into past mistakes, going out of my concrete ways

Differences divide my mind as trips I recall guide me to familiar shadows left among the dark

Deep blue in thought, I bait the moments to wait, like a hungry shark

Hands at the ready, I feel among the memories emotions left to dissipate among my past

Holding again, the sands of time that didn't, couldn't last

Picturing more than what is shown

I delve into many "might haves" that are times already known

Slivers of hope hold me once again as the mirror begins reflecting a well known fool

For my own sake, I need to forget again, & stop being my own crutch, my worst tool

Dreams & schemes from solitary things move about as I lose notion of each motion

The room spinning, in my own fight, I've lost, & am winning

Distance just a chance to grab at

I swing heavily with my heart, for what never will be real, like the heaviest of any bat

Shattering nothing, but feeling light enough to fly

I blink as I continue to think more on everything I can't deny

Sunsets showing with each look I take, & took

A vibration clears my moment of hesitation, as all my cobwebs are shook

Back to it, back to life, regardless of the outcome

Be it leaving me emotionless, or somewhat numb, it's better than many, better for certain than some

Shaken but still standing, I'll carry on, marching to my own song

As I should, I can, still do...as I've done all along...
