Extremes

They speak to me of their miniscule worries

Expecting some sort of heart-felt response

There was a time when I would have searched for one

But now, life shows me an overtone that is so much deeper than anything that they know

My advice, much cheaper than the same

I should have set myself up a booth on the side of the road to have come up further in this game

Now that I can see the meaning of me, I am forced to return to all of my debts

Unbeknownst to me in the past and when I knew of them later, at a point when I could not have cared less

Had I not been able to foresee this mess, my actions I surely would have changed

I am grateful that I took the time to lend a hand, even when I was down and out

I am very grateful that I have given of my blood, even when I was without

Now things cannot possibly turn completely sour

There is no way that the same shit that I have already catered to could ever possibly devour my soul

I must keep in mind, though, during this fallow time that another one may again find me somewhere down the road

I suppose that I could learn how to just take a burden or two away without the responsibility of taking on the entire load

It often irritates me when the clouds refuse to leave my skies to bathe in total blue

It makes me cringe when my mind draws a blank

When I give up every ounce of me and I am left without a clue

There is a light somewhere always up ahead, even though it may be millions of miles away

There is an end to this game of ridicule that we play

So, I will continue smiling

I will keep holding my head up high

I will still try to keep all of us moving along with explanations of who,what, when, where and why

There is never agood reason for turning away except for when I am caught up in my dreams

This is all one big show composed by God's undying love that has within it thousands of extremes...
