Simply Put

Simply Put

Simply put:

I have nothing.
I have friends
family
a home
yet want more.

I have security
it what small quantities it is
and what I need to get by,
but have nothing.

Scrooge found this so himself
and find it I can not.

Simply put,
I'm tired.
Of searching,
of falling,
of failing,
and of calling.

And the boredom,
and the stagnation,
and the disposition to the deflation
of the ego that kept me strong.
Falling
Catching
Leaping
Calling.

Calling.
Calling.
Calling.

Simply put
I call out
and a million helpful answers come.
But simply put-
it's me who won't decide.
