Kent

I wait and I listen in the shadow of my failings.
I try to be everything I think Is everything I would want in this spherical cage.
I don't mind disappointment, ignorance and inconsideration
I live with the anguish of seeing the bright side forever cast down into the apathy of everyday.
I believe in a day, a moment, a heartbeat.
I dream that one day all that is written will mean all it can be, will be all that it should, will be something more than one thing to me.
I demand nothing from everyone, not to avoid disappointment, but to bask in the surprise that even smiles can bring.
I used to think that it would all be okay, that I could accept being shoved in the corner, down turned expression and shambling dignity.
I will take it all, turn it around, put a spin on the mistreatment, make it my fault, never blame another.
My life of folly, worth naught at the counter.
Because I do not know where Kent is.
.....And apparently that's all that matters.
