Sonata

Spilling words like blood from vein
Flowing at an alarming rate
The theme remains the same
Even if I am simply 
Playing the same note over time
Maybe somewhere
Someone is hearing it
Hearing my note
To complete their song
Our serenade to the universe...

Possible

My apartment still feels more like a hotel room than home
and my hands feel like someone elses'
I walk through my days consumed by consumption
While time passes me by instead
I could be spending my life with purpose
Vision
There could be more than this
But instead
I sleep through it
Snooze the possibilities
and hide from the goodness
Inherent
In each day
If I'd just take a moment
To stop the distraction
and listen
The silence is deafening when you stop moving.

Endings

There is a funeral across the street
Steady stream of black clothing and hung heads
I wonder about the person inside
Wonder if any of the people really knew them
Wonder how long it will take to forget
And move on
Back to technicolor and smiles
Visions of a life not lived
