Written through inspiration from the movie "Charlie Bartlett."
View the world
Stare down the barrel
Of that kaleidoscope
Spin it
What have you got
Living a life
Through a pipe
Dreaming of a life
Other than your own
Something new
Anything different
When the facts fall
Everything comes into place
Someday it'll hit you
A brick to the back
Of your sullen head
Laying on the ground
On the cold cement
Scarred by life
It'll just be
Another sad day
Reason after reason
Why life sucks
When really
There's good everywhere
Bad everywhere
Reach out
Jump into it
We can make it ugly
Or we can make it good
Nothing's always just
The way we see
Looking down the barrel
Of whatever gun
We place before us
I hope ya guys take that with you through your day (or you night depending on when you're awake the most). Think about it, take time to analyze it. Watch how you interpret parts, there's a lot of meaning you can take away from it...and if you've never read a poem and actually thought about it, try it for once. I wrote this one for you.
After you've done that, go out and rent Charlie Bartlett and please do the same with that movie.
Thanks for listening...
