Epitaph
written by: James Dean Collins
@TheGigconomist
Dead end street,
Joint in my mouth,
I came here to sleep
But the sun came out.
The lake’s in front,
The concrete’s behind
I’m out of gas,
But what’s the time?
I have a job,
Or three or four,
I have a life,
But I’m not sure.
I’ll find the ocean,
I’ll see the end,
I’ll go on,
But not my friend
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:
For Amy. I hope you’re free and without pain. Rest in peace.
If you be my best friend, I’ll love you forever.
