Camping Summer 2005

I dug this up.
Well I was going through my computer and ran across a bunch of poems I had written. Some of them I didn’t finish, and some weren’t so good. But I found a few I still liked and this is one of them.
I wrote this poem after I had broken up with Rachel, and before we had gotten back together. And I was watching how she lived her life, and she was always discouraged and never believed in herself. And having been at that point in my life before, I wrote my thoughts down and tried to portray a person who for one reason or another never decides to take hold of their life and make it their own:
It’s Yesterday Today
Watching time fall off the clock
Turning hours into minutes.
Years now I’ve spent in yesterday
Trying to decide if I regret it.
How will the future ever come,
If this moment’s in the past?
Yesterday’s consumed today,
And tomorrow’s next to last.
I’d rather think about the mistakes I’ve made
Than about the mistakes I’ll make.
I don’t want to be responsible,
For the choices that I make.
I’ll throw the dice and turn away,
Let the chips fall as they may.
Somehow I’ll find a way to deal with,
Whatever comes my way.
Today’s my second chance,
To redeem what’s gone awry.
But what if I just let it go
And cast it all aside.
It takes no pride to admit mistakes,
And I’ve got pride to lose.
The present cannot change the past,
But the future’s mine to choose.
I’d take control, I’d turn the tides,
I’m not worried about the fall.
My biggest fear in all my life,
Is I’m not good enough at all.
I’ll hide in the shadows of what could have been,
Because it’s harder to be seen.
Away from the eyes, the tears and the lies,
Away from all but me.

Did ya ever have one of those days….
where people seem to think they are the master of your destiny? I’m talking about the trivial to the not so trivial events and/or details?!?! And which is more frustrating…the attempt to alter the trivial details or the major ones? Dang! that is a hard question!!!! Well, just sharing a thought. I am going to go around and check with everyone to see if I can post this…ah, punt it! I’ll decide this one on my own….publishing now. And thanks for sharing my rant!
Oh where, oh where have the bloggers gone!?
Well, I know its been pretty slow on the blog here lately. But I have been a smidge busy with work, and remotes every weekend. I did get the radio working, record changer and all. But I think I’m going to go back and mess with the antenna circuit a bit to get better reception.
Got the deposit down for the apartment in Manhattan, so I will be moving there come August 1st. Gonna be pretty rockin. Andrea thinks we’re not having a house warming party, but I’m telling ya right now. You’re invited. 😉
I’ll be in the Ingalls/Cimarron area next weekend. I’ll be pretty booked Saturday. I’m going to be DJing Garf’s wedding. It’s alot of work but I’m looking forward to it. And I might be booked Sunday too. I want to swing by Dad’s place and see if Carrie has had my brother/sister yet. And then I’m pretty sure it’s grillin’ at Mom’s place.
So that’s my life for the next week or so. Still gonna be busy until then. And Country Stampede after that. Then I’m going to sleep all July.
