Passions Misplaced


Passions Misplaced

Lost
in a decade of living
trampled under
bills
boys
nine to five
I moved my body
I moved my heart
Packed up my passions
and misplaced them
Dropped along the years
Left behind
while criss crossing the country
and cutting across my soul
The old flames no longer burn
Past matches no longer ignite
I need to create new fires
but how to find new sparks
with a life buried
under living
