Be still for a moment

I cried after evening, don't leave me this madness...
I sang a song at dawn, I lived another day, gladness.

I claw at the reality, it sticks to my every move...
Then down to the bottom I stand, glued.

I cried at what was done, what will be done, what has not begun.
I hoped, lied, spun fears, knowing it will not be undone for years.
I cried for myself at the begining and the end of these fears.
I listened for my savior, but I listen with deaf ears.

A wash begins my cleansing, but it is not enough...
Four walls, a door, a window, but I am stuck.

I will begin to live, begin to give, begin to block the pain...
Not today comes crashing in depessing all in its wake.
I see a light , I see a hope, I see it in glorious waves...
But the light goes out when I spin my clay,
leaving darkness to eat my mind away.

I live another day.
I live another day.

chasingtheday The PoetBay support member heart!
another day is better than no more days, even if we chase them round and round. while we breathe, no matter what the pains, there is always hope for a brighter time.
