END OUT

Bobby O

END OUT
How u hold up ur end,Tells all ,what ur about.  I don't know yet how i'm gonna figure my end out.

So I went back, walked thru my minds video of the past, found four frames, hard questions asked, they triggered truth, I own lies that last. Some,  they live in those video's, gave me reasonable doubt, the past ain't gonna show how I'm gonna figure my end out. 

But I got next, next week, next job,next plan's the best. Today stays empty, tomorrow is all. Frozen steps, Future dreams, embracing the stall, Imaginary progress , on some imaginary route, the Future sure won't show how I'm gonna figure my end out. 

The Privledge of time, I thought used to be mine. Climbing up will scare me, but I refuse to stay blind. The mirror talks, baby steps, walk that straight line. Joining life, jumping in, ending this hideout, now , right Now, is the perfect time to figure my end out.

    It's an internal thing isn't it... No matter what stage of life it's just sort of putting one foot in front of the other......

      Exactly

      Time is a cruel thing. It’s so easy to have a plan for your future, only to have life change the rules and throw some curve balls. The older I get, the more I realize how difficult and unreliable my plans can be. But, the only thing you can do is control what you can control and keep on keeping on.

      ‘The mirror talks’ so true. Fab write, thanks for suggesting.

      Strangely enough, I found this somewhat inspirational too ..

      It also felt good checking out your play set .. Neville

      That means a lot. I’m not able to capture as you do w succinct phrase, as my minds is sorta stuck on literal. So the fact you can find some interest really means very much. Also, I’m not as proliferate as some. But I plug away and am not afraid to discard so as to accomplish a certain standard. I’ll keep going and when you spread some joy this direction by digging back it gladdens me.
