Unforesight
I didn’t have the foresight to see this path looming back in my twenties
In hindsight the weed undoubtedly caused these empties
I didn’t anticipate living lost and lonely hollow as if my soul disowned me
in traditional terms evil got me,
not to spread hell attack or harm,
no, but hold me inactive, self sabotage its firearm
wear me numb,
just a subtle pain keeps me too lazy to run,
submissive, while exploitation of my foresight,
to prevent me have one.
forever falling but a fear now forming
through an idea of life before me unfolds
no longer allow what went before to stall proceedings
holding me down from rewards life can forge
ten years of the chapters staying the same in this story,
can’t stay dormant,
I need to plan ahead my future’s most important,
I just want common glory
I didn’t take the opportunities offering themselves as they usually appeared in my twenties, I didn’t anticipate the options empty, now I think I missed all the chances, dread fills my anxiety kills
I need actions real, activity to feed positivity bring an inner smile, confidence to breed a social scene cus empty ain’t my style,
release and unhold any dislike or grudge for people, empty my mind of those past aggrievances focus forward and forward focus
