APRIL 7TH
A POEM BY BEN PARKER - 8/4/17
my minds so wavy tonight
feel like im sleeping in the ocean
never felt a day so smooth
like im walking through lotion
i feel a new energy with
every motion
conversation minimal
so minimal commotion
dont kill my vibe
and say something out of line
and ruin April 7th
a day that was so divine
this time i wont go to sleep at 9
but ill go to bed knowing
the future can be fine
if i continue to find this balance
like im walking on a tightrope
so when temptation tickles me
i can stand up and say nope
i hope my loved ones can cope
with me being out the scene
for a few weeks
hope they see the bigger picture
like they accidentally double taped
my mind states so brand new
like i just napped
im laughing at some past stories
that i publicly snapped
listening to joey badass
im no longer a sad ass
it must be the sun
it must be this diet
my brothers home from uni
so now we gotta be quiet
if time had a price
id sure as hell buy it
and make memories
to return my investment
