Poem: For your interpretation

Lately, I have found it hard to remember what happened two days ago.

Lately, I’ve found myself sitting 

On the edge of the world wondering what this life

Is really about.

 

The most basic questions

Have only the most complicated answers,

And my mind is racing

And my youth is fading. 

 

Let me go and get out of my head.

I really don’t need to need you

And I really don’t care 

About the details, the numbers, 

The facts and the figures. 

 

This basic human force,

This basic human need,

I hate it.

This perpetual struggle of needing

To be needed is quite

Literally turning my skin green. 

 

Tell me, when were you the happiest?

Were you young? Were you old?

Tell me, the secret that you carry;

The one that you think no one cares about.

 

Let’s sit side by side under my

Avocado Tree and let nature do the talking.

Let’s forget about who we were and 

Fly a kite like when we were kids. 

 

Maybe then time won’t feel like such a bitch.

Maybe then I’ll come to terms

With everything I’ve done and

Everything I admittedly avoided.
