Realization

9/22/00

Do you remember a time when I was not drunk, not drunk with lust or envy or love, but a time when I was free?  When my spirit could mold to the wind.

 

Be free with desire. I thought I understood what made art, but it seems I have forgotten. My words stream together like endless random poetry on a page never ending, and not ever really starting.

 

I have visions, I see things, but I do not understand the extravagance to create. Now looking into my soon to be wrinkled face I see the answer I wish I knew years ago: To Stop.

 

My heart will not listen; it keeps on going in hopes for a better tomorrow. The beating hits against my chest and I realize I must go on, never ending.

 

I will continue.
