Vapors On My Window

Vapors On My Window
Peeking out a window through blinds that never close Seeing what you see not knowing what you know Everyday they are out there and their numbers seem to grow Peeking out a window through eyes that never close Panic breathes unevenly as the vapors splash the glass Momentarily obstructing things but the vapor never lasts The mist lifts again clearing the windows of the past Then a breath covers it watching it fade away too fast Three days without moving an inch, planted in permanent ache No need to ever sleep when you always wanna stay awake No need to even eat when the plastic fruit isn't fake Paranoia meets suffering in a much needed coffee break

Thank you so much Pashang and are we not all in pain in one form or another? I appreciate your concern very much

this is very enjoyable reading for me, Brian. A bit mysterious but sounds like someone at a job or something. and can have a deeper meaning as well. I really liked this one.
