fast food
Time beats the wind from my chest
Swiftly
Putting me in check
I check my reflection
No, time to reflect
I am but a number
Ravaging through society
Quietly screaming metaphors
In air
and anywhere
But everywhere is vacant
Life like needle
Lost in context
Like life is a contest
Giving empty confessions
While ignoring obvious blessings
woke up
at 6 a.m.
windows cracked
air rushes in
filling lungs
theres life again
in me
God dwells
And my clock only spins
in 24 hour rotations
So I forgot about tomorrow
And I havent thought about yesterday
But I will not worry my life away
Im sorry to offend you
But only God can judge me
So your opinion is irrelevant
I have come to the conclusion
Theres only confusion in the "Why?'s" of it
Plus me nor my does not equal I
So I am
What I am
Regardless of the WHY?

I liked the concept of time/24 hours and how you presented this.

It's got swagga.
