A New Perspective

Somehow, I made it to college.

I didn't think I would live to see the day.

I have almost completed two semesters,

So why am I thinking about the black feathers

From my horrid fantasy again?

I know that attending college 

And getting good grades

Is more than a minor success,

But I feel as if I am self-sabotaging myself.

One hit, two hit, three hit, four...

The high of the dab pen is knocking on my door. 

I hit my juul once more

To top it all off.

I get high

And I see

This new perspective, new doors

All around me. 

It shows me that I've got a lot to live for,

And maybe to open one of the good doors,

I need to stop self-sabotaging myself. 

Maybe I need to just focus on myself right now,

And not get too high

To the point I can't finish my homework

I do enjoy this new perspective though.

And I often find myself coming back to this place 

When I take a blunt

And light it, breathing smoke in

And out again-- in front of my face.
