to nobody.

Things are easier said than done

such an overused phrase...
but it's so true. i never realized how true that was
and as a result, my mind has started to travel

all my train cars have separated
taking different roots at these divergent tracks
and it's confusing because they all travel at different speeds
some don't even stop to wait
talkless of looking back...

they don't wait. they don't take the time to listen
they just zoom on past like they weren't just part of one train
this train that has been whole for ages
they just, you know, kept going,
leaving their exhaust smoke behind choking the green car

the green car is the car of reason
the middle car that kept everyone together
but soon as we reached these divergent tracks..
it's like we never existed

but things that you did before start catching up to you
like that person who was only a few minutes late for the train
and you left them anyway...so now they're stranded in a
wasteland town

or the inoperable train car you just left behind
without so much as a glance
or that illegal 'detour' you took
that now obviously leads to nowhere that we know
or the secrets kept among the train staff
"what happens here, stays here" right?

but then everything comes into fruition
and we later realize that
everything that we did...or they did
stays with you forever
no matter how much you try to forget this
integral part of life

it's okay. it's fine.
i promise.

i don't lie now
believe me, i won't...
but those things you said
bring me to different conclusions

you know...it's funny how someone's actions
impact, influence, completely alter and sometime denature your previous notions
or forced thoughts
but you can't deceive yourself forever.
if you think you can...you're a fool.

fool - foolish - foolishness can't decide
what to think
it's probably unclear what context i'm speaking in
is it third person
or first person
third omniscient?

i love playing tricks with you
you're so vulnerable my dear.
you...?
doesn't exist. just a understood word for whoever is reading this

i think i'm starting to sound like a mentally unsound person
because i'm probably not making any sense

but that's great. really it is...

please. just...
just...
understand me.
