hi
my name's drifter
I call from my empty brain
no reason
no explanation
just to let you know I'm here
I tell u I'm drifter for a reason
this reason so simple
yet complex in the simplest way
this name gives me a purpose
even if my purpose was crumbling in my face
I walk and talk like normal beings
I look and feel the way I should
yet run away in my own mind
the complexity of this word unravels my brain
my only suffocation my hands
working them through this fabric
I paint the pictures on my paper
and write the stories of my creatures
I fall from my head in a slow circulation
as life cuts under the drift
for my name only reveals
the deepest part of my life
I live in Florida
family and friends
now I live in Nebraska with another set of eyes
I live with a psyco
cold and violent
at times a near ghost
his crazy went too far
and down the drain my life swirled once again
now my eyes are open
looking for a for rent
telling me I'm fine
telling me there's hope
this for rent for now
I will run to you
I run as it runs further away
further and further
I can't give up
I can't stop
for that will make me a thief
a thief of my own life
of my own sanity
