christmas delirium

by Chanel - Virgo

i see flashes of brilliance
in between pregnant pauses of stupidity
and i wonder which one
reveals the most truth
i was a lot of things....
a golden kid
a love child
a warrior
carrying the weight of generations failures 
on my ink pens
and i wrote all my pain away for years
until i grew up
and reality seldom lets you forget
that i was so many important things
to so many important people
and im still short of achieving
anything
that i once set out to do
because of those pregnant pauses of idiocy
i was something brilliant
and now im not

Reason for writing:

    i miss you guys
