20,075
by: Rob Paquin

20 thousand and 75 days
I’ve been alive
Half of those days
Something inside has died

Down but never out
Sometimes just going through the motions
Still doing what I can
To calm the tempest on my oceans

The sun keeps rising before it sets
And I keep painting a smile upon my face
But the end draws ever nearer
And I still ain’t found my place

There were illusions sent to fool me
As different dreams just faded away
I tried to forge from fire a thing of beauty
But I simply failed with what I gave

A tower built of failure
And a destiny of pains
Another day of regression
As I reflect on all that came

A grain of sand outside the hourglass
Something never to be counted
And upon the mantle of all I am
Beheaded, my soul is mounted.

But again the sun will rise for me
And again I’ll paint on another smile
I’ll walk on and keep going
Until I reach my final mile.

~The Snowdog
