Take the Time

Take the Time The most important day in My life you fail to come through You decided to let me fall. The time I needed you most You hit ignore and didn’t Answer my call .I sat there in that corner, And cried tears of pain. As all the trouble and hurt I held on to started to Drive me insane. And I waited as long as I could To hear someone say "Hold on, wait I'll be there" But no one showed and It hurt more to see no one care. You were so tied up In your selfish acts Or too tired you proclaimed To leave your bed And I was all alone As thoughts raced Through my head And before me laid Many options: pills, rope, A gun, a knife. Trying to find the quickest Way to end this pain I called life So now it’s over It’s done, and Everyone asks why? But she seemed so happy I never seen her cry But I did, you just Never took the time to see Time to realize the obvious You over looked in me So if anyone out there Can hear me Will you truly listen Will you remember Take the time so this Doesn't happen again? Will you remember to at Least call or text or stop By or just drop in Take a moment to check On your family and friends Don’t just say you're thankful For people in your life But can’t recall the Last time you came in contact A life is something easily taken That you can’t give back.
