A bunch of midnight ravings….
I sit up slowly in my empty bed,
My room and home I miss.
I sit and listen to the screams of silence,
My family’s loud talks I miss.
I look at the gray out the window,
occasionally stained with white,
The icy cold bothers me no more than, the long absence of true delight.
Oh how I yearn for the warmth I had, the sweltering dust hard to despise.
Those dull days I hated now shine in contrast, the nice days of now that I loath
I want to be free to see the world,
Oh how have I been so blessed.
Yet I threw it all away and shoved my treasures aside
Thinking that happiness resided elsewhere
how naive was my young restless mind
Content was not I with the status quo
Eager was I to change the world
My fingerprint, to history I shall leave
And for generations my name shall u read
I had declared to all
Unknowneth to me that many have tried
And failed to accomplish to what I have striven
A creative artist, an intelligent mind, a lonesome scientist whose name would shine
Another crack in my woven dream
I no longer see through it’s distorted screen
Bring back the years I have selfishly severed
All ties to my loved ones that I have fled
Take away the distance that spreads between us
And I promise never will I ever go back
Forgive me my dear ones for being so harsh
For my ambitions blinded me and now I longer laugh
At the notion of home is where your loved ones are
And screw history and the rest of. Earth
For happiness is in the company you keep
And how well and wonderfully treat your peeps
I will be back soon I feel it in my bones
Whether alive and still breathing I dare not know
Until that day, farewell my love
My thoughts are of you and who you’ve become
