I’ve become a little lost on here
not being the man I am
to those who know and need me.
I’ve been distant, distracted
passive, as if waiting for something
to happen in my life, this isn’t me.
I’ve woken up now, can’t keep
waiting for a future I have no
say in, impossible to make real.
You live for today not tomorrow
I make you feel good, it’s only here
you want me, this reality for you.
I know the feeling.

Thank you, G – I wrote this one a while ago when I had my first blog and I was naive… I know hard to believe!

That’s nothing naive about this post. If anything it’s painful.
You have many secrets Eric. Another blog?

My first blog long deleted – a good bad experience I learn’t a lot from. Ah, secrets, haven’t we all?

There’s a certain philosophical sound to this piece. Almost stoic. I love it. 🤗

I truly can empathise with this.
Even though we can create our own private cosmos, we can still find it mystifying and thus get lost in it.
