It’s Not Easy

Desert drive
A ball of fire up high
burning toward
the better days desired

keep your head
but never look behind
fear and dread
what a waste when you have one life

It’s not easy
Being you being me
It’s not easy
When there is so many
So many yous many me

I try to
I try not to try too hard
Try not to
To think of the future scars

It’s not easy
Being you being me
It’s not easy
When there is so many
So many yous many me

Dusk of youth
lasts forever until it ends
book of you
writes itself with your dirty hand

It’s not easy
Being you being me
It’s not easy
When there is so many
It’s not easy
Being you being me
It’s not easy
And that is the beauty
