Not An Easy Way Out
Perhaps a part of my life is over
Thing is... never felt the other part had begun
Felt more... to have remained forever
No longer perhaps have I a place to run
I need to fall in love once more
Not with anyone but with life
I need find what I’ve never been searching for
To find a way for my other part to survive
I cannot stop what I’ll eventually think
And I’m glad to be different than a usual
Trying to be normal is already a different dream
Do try harder and fail... accept the mental
Perhaps I’m learning again for the first time
Learning with experience... a life I once fail to see
I need the brightest of light for the darkness I’ll find
To accept abnormality others will one day aspire to be
Am glad rather... that part of my life is over
Not an easy way out from whence we thought we begun
Death is so much easier to believe than love forever
And don’t you think... that life is just a improving rerun?
