Sunrise again bashes me awake
Stare through yellow starlight
A daily blurry vision quest
The cracked blacktop warms up
Plants yawn through green maws
Rayleigh scatters the blue sky
My eyesight is starting to go
But I haven't told a soul
Where I'm going I won't need it
This world is so much prettier
With eyes closed anyway
All colors fade with time
All hues bleed into the past
Chord progressions of life
Inevitably transition to a coda
A wall of sound cut short
That mystical space between
As the artist completes his work
And the audience begins to clap
The blissful void of acceptance
A vacuum of hope and esteem
That's where I live my life now
See you later
If I see you at all
