Some Place I Dont Belong

Isn't it strange? How with time are feelings we rearange. When you've taken the time yet it seems they havent finished the song. When you've found yourself some place you dont belong. So far from that which you were. So burnt out from life it all seem's a blur. Old stories. shared memories of forgotten glory. Am I just a loser to ignorant to admit when he's wrong have I woke from a well ment dream. to find myself some place I dont belong. Some place were even the water is as harsh as whiskey. gone so far I question does anyone miss me. I wonder have I burnt thoose briges beyond repair. as i question have I become to jaded to care. So beaten by life it's a losing battle to appear strong. Life it seems has left me some place I dont belong.

With such a heartfelt write, I doubt you will ever "become too jaded to care," John. We relive the glory days over and over and, yes, time does seem to have a way of changing our perspectives. Nice work! Love, Carolyn

I think most of us feel like this at some point and time. Nice job.

I think we have all felt like this at some point in our lives, is there really a place for me? I often ask myself. I love the line where you mentioned water was as harsh as whisky, BRILLIANT!!
