Ten Minutes

Convincing is not an easy task

 

Ten minutes

 

I give you ten minutes,

Now convince me how,

The importance of life,

Applies to me now.

 

If I were gone,

Would you really miss me?

Would you really mourn my death?

Would you accept the reality?

I know I haven’t.

But isn’t that why I ask you now.

 

Just ten minutes,

That’s all you have,

Come on,

Convince me,

That I truly belong.

 

I don’t want your sympathy,

I don’t want your tears,

I just want your words,

So full of your fears.

 

Don’t say what sounds right,

Don’t say what makes sense,

Just say what you feel,

If it’ll make any difference,

Well, I doubt it will.

 

It’s ten minutes you have,

To late,

It’s up,

And guess what,

I haven’t been convinced.

Please ignore my grammar problems, let me know what you think of the over all feeling.

Wow, that's really good. :) It makes me feel like I have to say something to you in ten minutes... though, I don't really know what to say. Good job though, it's really good.

Don't worry too much about grammar. I have that problem too.
