days long gone by...

by tattooedbeatmessiah - Libra

hit the road after high school,
didn't wait for a ride,
hitching my way
from one dead show
to another,
sold t shirts and
cigarettes and
an occasional hit
or bag of pot,
anything to keep
from starving,
freezing,
or going mad,
begging for tickets,
rides,
sleeping in dirty
flea infested buses,
not showering for weeks,
waking up with some chick
you met the nite before,
with love beads and
flowers in her hair,
wanting to go with you
but your just making it yourself,

looking back,
i miss 
those days of
seeing the country 
with eyes wide open,
living free..
things will never be the same...

Reason for writing:

    just drafting..
