Marbles

The sound of a small clash,

of broken glass…

There another one goes!

Another marble gone,

broken by my foes

Sequenced, repeating, relapse

Life got out of my own hands

I couldn't maintain a solid grasp

All of it happened so damn fast!

I know over the years I could hear them falling

I just didn't understand it, I couldn't see the calling…

I praise the fact they are forloin

My broken marbles and my lost coin

It breaks open an opportunity for exploration

To find my own new marbles,

maybe even of my own creation

I didn't need or want large glam

That entire path is also a scam!

I'm simply aimed for functionality

I've grown to appreciate simple things, practicality…

More solid and sturdy ones

With an impenetrable foundation

Inaccessible to outside permiation

Also to toxic inner and exterior degradation

I have gathered a few

But not enough to know with what to do

Still with a slight unease… trepidation

Perhaps I need to get to a higher elevation

Maybe if I made my marbles from those materials, they'd be a higher vibration

Maybe even somewhere I've never known, to give an unusual sensation…

I want them all to be very unique

I don't want to be the common, easy thing that everyone can seek

Along my quest to gather more marbles I will continue to go

Just much more aware, I don't have many friends

But I have many foe…
