"Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here"
03.01. 2021
I am lost.
Way deep into a one-way street with no return signs.
My whole life has been nothing but ticking a series of never — ending checkboxes.
That perfect plastic mold,
Prone to being poked and shaped everyday,
Devoid of life, devoid of a soul, devoid of an opinion.
Everybody seems to know what's best for me,
Everybody, but me.
I- don't know how to describe this feeling.
Regretting,
All the things I could've done but didn't,
and all the people I could've been with.
Nostalgic,
Of the good days, wishing I had 'Carpe diem — ed' them more often.
Scared,
Of what lies ahead and whatever comes after.
Confused ,
At which stop to get down on, and where to head from there.
Everyone seems to have a dream to catch, a destination to arrive at.
They're all leaving this suffocating little place for the charming cities with big bright lights.
Everyone ... but me.
So, you see where I'm coming from ?
But, throughout this shitty period ,
There is something that keeps me going,
Some who fill me with a sense of belonging,
They who are willing to listen'
And speak for me;
I then turn to their verses.
" John ,
Paul ,
Ringo ,
And George.
It's you,
It has always been you "
(Faint strumming)
" Here comes the sun, do, dun, do, do
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right "
I wake up,
Expecting the worst.
But ...
The warm winter sun on my back gives me a gentle reassuring pat.
Today is indeed a new beginning ,
I nod back, in affirmation.
All is not lost,
Not yet.
"Little darling, the smile's returning to their faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here"
Today ' s not the the first time the sun has risen on top of this valley of perpetual darkness ,
Nor the last.
" Here comes the sun, do, dun, do, do"
There is a slight hint of promise in the winds
A different ending,
A different tomorrow.
"Here comes the sun, and I say
It's all right"
I pick up my fallen pieces ,
Shove all the baggage into a shiny new american tourister,
Pull at the firm plastic-ky handle,
And walk across the dirt splattered grey and white patches of asphalt ,
My own abbey road.
" Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes "
