Hip-no-ties’d... by Jiblits

Hip-no-ties’d...

Rambling reasoning - 68. -

Hip-no-ties'd...

Mesmerized by the lack of luck

I walk about, only in place, as time leaves me stuck

Among the many thoughts long waiting for completion, or closure

I let tired eyes wander about the buildings of burdens, ever reaching further into the mental darkness never in clear exposure

Amid the middle of melancholy moments, I blink to think once more, back into the vault of reasoning I carry at all times

Across the clean room lay fallen castles of nickels & dimes

Accounting for all the chances I only collected the leftover change

I'm left with a feeling fleeting, one I wish I could say is strange

At least to me

The look-backs always free

The emotion built like a wall upside down

I still find the smiles, even if I wake with a calm frown
