........Wasted Youth Poem by NikMorgan ...

In a maze of smoke and mirrors
I anaesthetized my mind
Asking narcotic questions
A seeker to find

The melodic fields of summer
In the days when acid reigned
I lost myself
But my identity was regained

In neon
I’ve danced like a loon
Pulling impossible faces
At one with the tune

I’ve rushed and rushed
With nowhere to go
Wide eyed and insatiable
So high became so low

I know excess
Been in a misplaced daze for days
A guinea pig for chemistry
I tried every latest craze

There is no fear or loathing
For anything I’ve done
You may think me a pariah
But I was only having fun
