One Small SecondA Poem by Mike RatliffFor my sister, Hope.The times I think nothing My mind is blank The times I'm not worried about What others think That one small second between life and a dream Is my only time of happiness Well at least that's what it seams If Its good than its bad Like the rest of my life I hate my life I hate my life If its sunny, there's rain What the f**k is wrong with my brain? Telling me pills will keep me sane Would I rather feel nothing or constant pain Why is it that it takes me a while Just to think of things that make me smile no one understands what I think or I say Why wont it work when I pray? That times when I'm not alive nor dead Why cant I just stay in bed? That one small second Unconscious I lay But I've got to make the best of what could be my last day When I die and I'm left With none but a memory Was there such thing as life? Or is it just energy My name's the one thing I lack the most My name is Hope I have no hope So I will I wont regret it I hate my life I want to forget it Times I felt happy I never really meant it Forever I will live In that one small second. © 2015 Mike Ratliff |
