Selfless

As I sit on a bench I drink my drink.
Beams of sun rain down on the cold stone pavement,
Warming the dry, frosty air.
Lighting the dense, empty streets.

I yawn, my self fails from lack of sleep.
It is my fault, I tried to write, but did not know what He meant.
Cutting that young, strong boy premature.
A true adult when the heart no longer beats.

Mom and Dad say grow up now,
Get a job to pay the bills and marry and give us grandkids.
Stop playing with dumb, old toys.
Think about your future.

I drink my drink and think how
I am a failure, intentionally, but through nothing i did
Or did not, as certain focus drowns out noise,
But sweet simple the music that plays
