How come I don’t smile much?

[Nomad]

The first verse has it
The girl drops acid
Hanging with friends
Puff puff pass it
Before you know time passes
I don’t know what really happened
I am walking along a casket
Next thing I notice are cameras flashing
And people are asking
How come I don’t smile much?
I retort without force
If you were here you’d know why
20 years in and five friends have died
Multi ODs, natural causes and suicide
Has left me with shades for my eyes to hide
And I do what I like so I hate to cry
I write this for them blowing my smoke to the sky
My role model said while passing by
If it isn’t the drugs it’s the gun that has me destined to die
I hope by now I have answered why
By opening eyes
That people’s behavior is defined by their time
So who are you to say something about mine?

Woah!
that is a really deep poem, it has its sad characteristics.
But i think in a way it has redemption in it, you have realised what you need to do to stay alive and i think it shows that you treasure life.

i could be wrong, but awesome job Isaac.
