It's hard
To give up
What you don't
Want to quit
Even if it's
Substance-less
An empty hole
With an obvious exit
Put it down
And turn around
Walk on out
So strange
This change
Of perspective
Muting
The thoughts
That had directed
My day
My way
Of seeing
And perceiving
Wrongly
Misleading
Myself
In search
Or chase
Of someone else
Always barking up
The wrong tree
When what I need
Is to be free
