above the tears

ashes in the wind

nobody

really

gives a shit anymore

if i walked off

a cliff

tomorrow

who would know?

who would care?

another

footnote

in history

it is not like

anyone's life would change

it is not like

anyone would change the way they look at the world

or

the way they live

or even

cancel

their plans to go to

MacDonalds

tomorrow night

we live in a world of

right now

and

i would only have

right now

because

two minutes from now

something else

would catch

your attention

really

all i am

is a picture

(if that is really me)

and some words on a page

(if they are indeed mine)

if 6 months passed

and your heard

shit from me

it

would

not even

cross

your

mind

it is not that you are a bad person

or

that you don't care

it

is

just

reality

here

today

gone

tomorrow

ashes

in the

wind

forgotten
