At 30, alone, I stand and see,
Brokenness and failure, haunting me.
Laziness, my curse, holds me tight,
Every dream slipping out of sight.
In shadows cast by overthought,
Clarity's elusive, battles fought.
Yearning for change, to break free,
From chains of undisciplined destiny.
Against the odds, I strive to find,
Someone's belief, to reignite my mind.
Lost in dreams of an uncertain fate,
Sleep flees, leaving me to contemplate.
But in the depths, a glimmer bright,
Hope persists, against the night.
For in the heart of another, I'll find,
A guiding light, to soothe my mind.
Together we'll weave, a tale untold,
Filled with love, and dreams unfold.
In unity, our souls align,
To chase the stars, our destinies entwine.

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."

Nice poem
I love this, and it's potential as a poem about codependency. Sometimes it takes another person to get you up on your feet ❤️ beautiful poem
