I Smile and Stare

Jul 13, 2010 2 Comments by The Big Poobah

I smile at life,
I smile at fate.
I smile at you.
That’s all I do.

I stare at stars,
I stare at trees.
I stare at all
life lets me see.

Fed through these tubes,
That pierce my veins.
I feel the pain
and smile again.

Can’t move my limbs.
Can’t move my head.
Paralysis.
Far worse than death.

Far worse than hell.
Trapped in this shell.
Trapped in this chair,
I smile and stare.

Death teases me…
Eludes me so.
It fills my mind
with foolish hope.

The hope of dying,
that forces life.
As I smile and stare,
through this nightmare.

Life isn’t fair.
I know its not.
But endure I must,
to smile and rot.

I try to cry.
But all I do,
Is smile and stare.
At fate.
At you.

The Elder Scrolls told of their return
Their defeat was merely a delay
From the time after Oblivion opened
When the sons of Skyrim would spill their own blood
But no one wanted to believe
Believe they even existed
And when the truth finally dawns…
…it dawns in fire

But, there’s one they [...]

The Mid Year Resolution Review 2011

July is always the month of guilt for not following through on resolutions (pseudo or otherwise).

Look out for myself more, instead of looking out for others. You (I) know what I mean. Fuck yeah! It may have made me into more of a douche, but hopefully it will result in a more successful douche.
