On Top Again and It Feels So Good

feeling drained
in a good way
don't know how to fill
the voided sore
now that the infected puss
has been spewed from within
and yet there is still
a crater,scar,sore
spot here that
itches to be scratched
what about that
is it matter
or is it fact

only hope in 
the risks i both fear
and embrace
will i ever know how to get
to where i need to be
so here we go
one...
two...
three...
i stand up......
hook up.......
shuffle to the door.
i jump right out on the count of four
and the simple is done
and over but the landing will shortly come
i'll be on the ground again
down but not to blue 
it's true
and if i fall
and break my bones
i know that at least
God
and i alone
will heal
for real
and truely it's right
the good things in life
yeah that's it
i'll find em'

a glass full of sweet
sun tea
or a rainy day
in my sweatpants and my tv
and my dog and my cat
waking me by shaking me
fighting and flailing
for attention
is it okay can i mention
the good things in life
are at my feet
the glass is all the way full
and its contents are sweet.
