fuss and muss

8 March 2018 by Jason

growing up sucks.

i remember when i had fun.
even working was fun.
and pizza.

but now i’m in wrinkled clothes.
frost stuck to my hair and beard.
creaking knees, groaning moans.

more coins jangle in my pocket.
more space i fill with stuff.

maybe there’s a whole in my heart.
or could that be soul?

when did life lose lust.
when did i learn to worry and fuss?

On Poetry

To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best day and night to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting.
