rise

Woke up this morning,

‘Have a good day’ I said to myself.

Wondering how a minute could seem so infinitely long,

A year, seemingly short.

 

It’s comical, how we never have time,

When time is what we have most of.

How there’s so many friends we have,

Yet we feel so alone.

 

You can fall for the lover’s talk,

The ‘hand in hand’ walk.

Fall for the life offered shock,

For even a cripple can walk.

 

Corrupted minds, solutions sought

Feelings coming back again

How amongst those who care

Negativity creeps.

 

Sun burnt skin, hair split at the ends,

Could there be a bigger disaster?

Who loves the sun, the food provider?

All the love is lost, no love lost.

 

You can fall for the honestly dishonest,

You can fall for pain, all in good jest.

Fall for the life offered shock,

For even a cripple can walk.
