Blessing and Curse
its a blessing and a curse
my prison and my search
my gift and much worse
from first to nurturing
my current rebirth
circling above earth
blood for their thirst
my advantage, limit
depreciation by the minute
similar and not unlike me
improving this history
legacy and misery
family not infinity
chips fall as they may
october 2nd everyday
build or wreck my choices sway
make the most cause im here to stay
till my ghost turns to stray
earn this way
or burn before I pray
uncertainty needs to be braved
my dwelling my cave
shelter and cage
part of the play
combined with cards and my age
dealt and I deal
comparisons pale to the feel
its all in my head
yet ever so real
