the weekend

Mar 15, 2004 00:30

this was an odd weekend.  i feel like i learned something, and yet i dont quite know what that something was.  i feel like i missed something,but theres an overwhelming feeling that i was supposed to. i feel like i went somewhere but i stayed in Hollis.  i feel like i came to some conclusion but then i cant figure out what it was about.  i feel like im being pulled left, when my heart tells me i should be headed right.  people are trying to lift me up, when in fact theres something heavy tied to my foot pulling me down.  im pretty confused right now and only time will clear things up.

heres a poem from long ago


WASTED

Have you ever had that sinking feeling ?

pulled deeper even as you reach upward

Thrown off the bridge

With a stone tied to your feet

Struggle all you want

Its no use

Tied with chains

Watching as the fish float freely

You zoom past headed ever deeper

While they have all the freedom they want

Almost taunting as they swim in circles

They have the freedom but they waste it

Swimming around because they are curious

that’s what’s most disappointing

The ability to be free but not using it
