Ugly Reflection

I am no longer the man I once was,

life is a struggle without the buzz,

human, I am, just because.

This is my rhythm, not a proposed rhyme,

I misplace my time, a self-crime.

Thinking about life with this bullet in hand,

after the bang, where you fall is where you land.

Look on as the clock turns the minutes with persistence,

slowly measuring the quality of your existence.
