Reality

Your breath is short, life is fleeting.
I’m not ready for mine to take on a
different meaning
Discretion of death—indiscriminate and capricious, like saying fuck it,
let’s give a vicious pull at the strings of a puppet that looks and acts and
sounds like me, ‘cause I’m the creator, the actor, the animator
When everything in life gets harder, we’ll both suffer the fate of a stone
dropped in water
Crafting a persona, putting on a new face.
I’m taking back control of this
inanimate case of something that used to smile, something that used to laugh,
obsessed with a reality that I can’t go back
Down the hatch goes all the pain that ends up stuck in my throat.
I want to push my fingers down inside to make me throw up all the hurt,
up all the doubt
You know it’s gotta come out.
But the way we live this life is in pain
Vibrant in an instant, ghost adjacent the next.
A photo captures life but
ignores death’s effects.
A spark in the eyes, a gleam in the smile,
makes it seem like life might be normal for a while, but it’s not.
The norm is now a fight and a struggle hidden behind a slight joke.
It’s a juggling act between now and eventual like playing in the rain and the
sun hits a puddle—it evaporates and dissipates.
Turns out this life is nothing
great without you
Everything ripped away
It’s harder every day
There’s nothing left to say
I need you with me
Is this reality?
