Excuse Me- I’m Trying To Get Directions To...

A Sunset on the outskirts of Albuquerque NM

I can’t seem to find the right map,

like where the hell am I at- I don’t suppose apples got an app. for that?

no disrespect Robert Frost- but I just don’t see a path, or remember any not taken,

a lot going on- it’s all hard to take in,

everything around us is always changing,

memories a bank, adds up when you keep throwing your change in.

I’ve got quite a collection,my mind like a Kodak,

I can just be chilling, reminiscing, and have a throw back,

And sometimes, certain times got me like “God just throw me back”,

I could be so different, in opposite positions in specific situations,

have better, stronger relations,

heart wouldn’t of had to heal from so many incisions..

but it seems my visions cause collisions with reality,

like I am playing monopoly trying to add up my realty, but this game isn’t real to me.

Because where I want to be, seriously, is not yet my property; and that’s when it hits me.

like what am I here for; what is my purpose?

will I always want more? & God was this an accident or on purpose…

I have had good friends, but you dispersed us,

And I have traveled more than the drops in rain clouds,

in-fact, fact; I have been dropped more than the rain in clouds,

So just give me a sign, or at least a general direction,

should I be following or directing?

am I wrong- out of my mind, or correct in..

Thinking I give all that I’ve got, & I expect to start collecting.

& although this investment seems to have me in a deficit,

I can’t quite quit, because I don’t know how to,

But to do so much- to feel so worthless,

I give it such a high price when maybe it’s worth less,

It’s leaving me thinking is it really worth this……….

And all I can really believe is, yes, that’s what worth is..
