Fitzgerald's Mind

To roam freely forward into the sunset 
was not my "happily ever after."
To solemnly splendor in my frivioulous 
thoughts was not to be my nirvana. 

Fate and for feed upon my jubilance. 
Abandoning my presence to the abyss of despair.

Very sad but deeply thought creating. I think we all find ourselves in that abyss of despair at one time or the other, that is when climbing out becomes my pathway to paradise, no matter how winding or long it might be. Nicely done.
