Sober Thoughts Of A Drunkard by Foxybone(m): 2:43pm On Oct 11, 2012 |
I am me in a world unknown Where pains from childhood is sown Love is a metaphor which on the wind is grown Laughter from the heart not known The world moves in a mass Flowing with the tide arranged like a class Eyes dead to feeling unpierced like glass Plastic smiles on their lips like a gate pass Who shows love to the weaklings When from childhood you are like misplaced seedlings Living off the street dumps like dumplings While tears from your eyes keeps rolling I live in a life where death comes Like oxygen your life plumps Giving no chance for reforms While you journey into afterlife unwelcomed Be careful of the sky while sleeping For you know not when planes come crashing Be careful of the road while walking For you know not when the tanker comes rolling Ha!!! This palmwine has taken its toll My eyes and pen keeps moving in a droll Clueless it may seem like an election poll But it is a welcome sedative to my soul I live like the mountain goats Who feed daily on young tender oats Though it does cause hurt to their throats But the paddle will always befriend the boat Where is my world in the galaxy When I ply the street saddened and boxy Surely pain and dirt is truly unsexy No short cuts even when you are foxy This life of mine is lonely I wander the street not feeling homely Pangs of hunger attacks me uncomely Surely I live my life not for me |
