The Only Thing

it's a real thing, it's a deal thing, but mostly lack of appeal thing (12/24 pieces/hours)

By BrenPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

the only thing

that ever comes back

to this reality

is me.

i’m the one fuckin constant

in my life

i’m the number one source

for woe and strife

i’m number one with a bullet

number one on my life

i’m the only fuckin constant

in my life

every jumbled thought i ever had

every single fleeting fleeing sliver

when did i ever promise something

and fail to deliver?

i’m the moaning fucking constant

in my life

what is this

that i have become

i’m the lonely fuckin constant

in my life

what you thought

i was gonna be

but all the time you see

it was simply bloody me

and a couple of trick mirrors

cheap scammy magician shit

still pretty much the lonely fuckin constant

in my life

but you still can’t see

not even with

those expensive glasses

that live on your head

you still can’t see

still can’t see the me

that you

had me become

and now

i am the fuckin constant

in my fuckin life
