Subject: New Post!!!.....a lil piece i'm workin on entitled..."Reachin"...just lookin for some feedback and critique....oooh, and this isn't long like usual hahaha....ENJOY!!!!

i get in my mind sometimes it's time to quit stretchin for the skies
and settle my feet back on the earth, cope wit the bad and the worse that's possessin my life
quit tryin to defy the nature of my existence, and take my place in the ditches
the gutter, the underbelly of the globe, but there's no tellin what'll transpose in this graceless mission
take for instance, it seems some pages are missin in the book of my being
cuz i look and i'm seeing, no meanin to my livin or my butchered routines
it's like they've took my dreams, and shredded em up, knowin that my efforts were rough
they've captured my hopes, placin em outta my hold on the edge of a bluff
danglin in front of my face, i'm given a taste and then they're taken away, it's like i'm reachin for stars
but they're too far, and it's just too hard, to grab ahold of the heavens wit human arms
so i feel in my heart, it's time to give up and relinquish any goals i've had
but then i grow so mad, knowin others are livin the dreams that they've chose to have
it's so so sad, cuz there's millions like i, that are trapped and losin half of their patience
willin to die, just to grasp their aspirations, but givin up tryin, cuz the path is frustratin
and aimin for the moon just consumes too much of ya spirit
it's like a lost cause, and wasted time, not failure's, the out-come that ya fearin
it seems as if there's no means to the end, no reason to keep on goin
no need in even hopin, cuz life got ya trapped in the dirt, and it's no leavin ya know it
no breakin free of the chains that you're suppressed within, ya quest has ended before it even begins
yet i keep feelin like i gotta bigga purpose everytime i reach for the pen
but there's no ladder to climb up, outta this rut, no room to spread my wings
so i can't take flight, cuz i'm confined in the ties of a desolate life, on the brink
of losin my mind, it ain't right...this is the land of oppurtunity but so many are never given a chance
i only wish to enhance, the hearts and minds of lost souls, wit this mic i hold in the grip of my hands
but no matter my attempts, i believe, i might never achieve, this dream, that i've worked so hard to receive
so i'm plagued to find solace in bein a stargazer, until the day that my heart wavers, and i part from the tease of that dark sea
