Keep Limping Along

The tale of the years that I knew you
Are a bard-breaking ballad of woe.
I thought that your end was the end of the path.
I'm still looking for someplace to go.
When absurd takes a turn for the tragic,
We reach out and keep limping along.
Call it “crutch,” or maybe “diversion,”
Be it vice or a hobby or song.
Some people turn to drinking,
But I'd never turned away.
Some people stare at their ceilings all night,
and some at their TVs all day.
Everyone has something to do
Or to take or to visit to cope.
I just don't.
