Short Written
• Written by Person
I’m supposed to be off my ass by now, but haven’t found the strength or healing
VA claims stayed appealing, backed up logs stack up long that effects my billing
Barely afforded rent, dirtless floor mat step because no one visits my building
Living room is more dead and empty than a cenotaph, so I’m expressing feelings
Only one said happy Vets day really, you have no idea how far the length it’s killed me
When it seems even the closest ones, have chose to not give respect all year, geez
No birthday wish, or acknowledgment for serving after I’ve deflected fiercely
Attacks from Poland when deployed, my own family or homeland just avoid every single moment to go voice a tenth of caring
Makes me wonder how I would’ve been brought up if I were dead ‘stead here, please
Forgive me for saying that as I’m laying back on the mattress as stiffness wears me
I can’t shift the theory outta my mind I may have been more loved when I’m buried
Staring at foggy mirrors that got me scared, seems all because I just can’t see clearly
Myself, I’m not a hero nor something nearly close, it’s hard at times to stand w/ achilles
Being torn but I’m tired being ignored, but how can you all in your mindset been so guilt free
All senseless filthy things since then filled me relentless tearing that has left me still wish-ing
Every night hoping one day you all can see me, if I were in your homes, I’ll be living stealthy
And mom, I’m still trying my hardest to push through so I can retire you
Ever since I’ve been fighting w/ darkness until I accomplish my desire to
Have you never worry about the bills, but now you’ve been worried about mines as I’ve dealt with pains that require huge
Timing before I’m able to properly walk from all those damn awkwardly falls
I’ll probably suff-er more and more, by the time I’m 50, I’ll awfully crawl
(Look)
I wrote this 11 days ago, I just really needed to get this all off my chest
I know I’m on a descend along this website I’ve been a part of since
Feb 2015, it’s almost been 9 fucking years, overstayed on this bitch
Everyone needs to stop whining, pull yourself together and hold your shit
We will all be alright in the end, glad to meet you all and keep writing til death
Dos you apart if you’re married to the game, and always keep finding the pen
That leads you to be creative and different, expand yourself to a mic and go spit
It’s gonna suck if this website doesn’t end, and this last part is pointless
But stay sharp and focus with heart and purpose, lock your soul in.
Now everyone, stop bitching about it haha.
