Poem
All the time I've wasted and chances I've refused to take Dreams deferred and the mornings I did wake Bring sadness upon me and tears to my eyes Little did I know just how quickly time flies by Deep inside where all the stronger feelings originate Dejection and regret mixed with a little bit of hate I long to go back in time But I don't have that for a lifeline Little by little I slowly die inside Where all the chronic pains reside Lift me up then slam me down Tell me I'm able then watch me drown I'm under pressure, and about to blow See the darker colors glow I'll show you things you've never seen before Joy burnt all the way to the core Along with all the other good things that died inside I'll let you in with no force applied I'm tired and I can't sleep at all I'm weak and about to fall I'm antithesis to sublime All because of father time I have to watch time leave with no goodbye I stare as it blows right out the window and wonder why My sadness pins me to the ground I take the pain and make no sound I cry when it leaves my sight And say goodbye to all the days gone by, and hello to the dark, dreary, and somber night.
