Hello

Hello,

I’m a little bit confused.

Can you help me

sort out what I feel?

Years have gone by

and still

the same things leave me wondering,

leave me grasping

at a memory

of what was really real.

 

Remember all the nights,

scared and lonely,

helpless;

now where has all the pain gone?

Leaves me gasping

for a poison

that I used to exist on.

 

Hey!

Make me fall in line,

with the work-a-day world

with the turning of time

– just another ant in the hive.

Never needing to wonder,

to question just why I’m alive.

There’s got to be something else.

 

Give me a suit

and a desk with a view,

a car and a family,

a stable existence in chaos.

In a world

where my only confusion

is life…

 

… hello?
