Morning 7/31/17

These hours of morning
Clouded grey shrouding blue sky
Until afternoon sun burns it all away

A quiet life in a quiet place
Is this all I ever wanted
I don't know but it's what
I want today
Turn off the city lights
Leave the cars on the road
Watch the stars from
an unlit porch
Listen to the sounds
of a world gone back

You're old enough to know
better
You're old enough to know
life doesn't owe you anything
Pull yourself up
Get walking
Get moving
Don't get stuck forever
in your head

the good times are killing you
