Reality Check

by Catherine Anne - Capricorn

Reality Check
Make it out to Cash
And maybe he'll know waht to do with it 
Cause i sure don't 
I feel like i'm sitting outside
Looking inside at myself
Looking back out at me
And wondering what the hell that all means
And if i have to hear one more person
Discuss cell phone prices
As though they were world hunger
I swear, i'll kill them
So pretty are the mountains
And so clear is the sky
Like a straight-edge razor
Draw the lake, crystal blue
Draw the razor, crimson red
Drip, drip, little ripples
And effect no one
In a locked bathroom
Just don't scream
Or they'll come for you
And bring you back
That's purpose defeating, isn't it?
Stare out at the darkness
It's getting brighter, isn't it?
Endure years of agony
Wait for it to get better
Endure 3 minutes of pain
And it's almost over
And you'll wonder
Why you ever waited so long

Reason for writing:

    A really bad day
