...denial...


so many choices
in so little time
four years of future
leaves me guessing.
life at a crossroads
the question falls to me
i ignore it,
pretend it doesn't exsist.
don't want to think about it
don't want to worry
not anxious to pull up roots
in no hurry.
denial works just fine,
keeps me walking blind.
close my ears.
close my eyes.
shut it all out.
hide from myself.
don't think.
go through naive.
don't care.
i've got what i need.
don't want to grow up.
don't want to change.
my rut is comfortable.
it makes me happy
to be where i am.
the confusion in my head
against that of my heart
is easy to quiet.
i've still got four months.
four months of false peace.
but peace is peace.
it's quiet.
maybe too quiet.
