We Fell the Best We CouldA Poem by NatalieThese things happen so fast. We change before our very eyes Without the knowledge of pondering “whens” And so we’ll find another way To carry on with burdened days… Things used to be so right All was placed in line with time But then we found a ditch And suddenly we all fell in, And the world soon joined us. Did you come to watch me fade? Or to break my fall so that I wouldn’t Throw life away? Or did you come to help us? To help us get back up and To take away the weight? You see I’m standing on the border line of life and death So take this chance Just take my hand, and we’ll dance through the night Behind the moon, and behind the stars, Behind the world, and behind our scars And we’ll look back to See what we’ve done Before the walls break down, Before I give and… So take a drink and Take a bow while They clap and cheer, just for my frown And if I join their big parade Then maybe I’ll fight for just one more day. © 2010 Natalie |
