Here Nor There
You're a sewer of lost words
You spill and submerge all in truth
Is life immersed?
Crystallized!
I fear not
For the stench of ration in our eyes
Life is wasted on the young
Teen times close
And it's over before you know
What a bore
What a blow
To reflect
Is to admit we were wrong
Hemp I enjoyed in reminisce in hope
Is now my hanging rope
For these moments
Were the only souvenir from teens
Duty and convention
Oust beauty and naivety
There's only me now
