Night thoughts - 1. - Because why not
Night thoughts - 1. - Because why not -
Distance has always been mostly time to me, eluding my grasp in everything but my dreams each night
I've always been able to hold close those memories I wanted the most, enjoying fictional moments with eyes closed, yet able to smile at each illusion of sight
Maybe it's been too long to keep on with such a choice for procrastination
Though, I still feel the same, for each, in some way, help me manage each new frustration
I get older by the year as though a decade has past
I'm limited by my being for what's shown, & assumed, though I show more for what never could, or did last
At least that's how I feel, it surprises me like an old man how many just don't know, or care to, at the end of the day...
The hard lessons learned, mistakes being repeated, again, so many assume there is no other way...
But, that's life, as Sinatra sang ages ago, only in mind now to so few
The world spins, & those stuck in place, angrily stand, watching the surprise-less show, at heart, they already knew...
I hope my assumptions aren't right for the future always close by
I just hope others move to make things better after the moments of asking why...
Till then, I wait for the final gate of fate to burst open & show all...
I'll be around "I hope", but even then, I can't say I'll be in any hurry to answer anyone's call...
