A Somber Someday
A SOMBER SOMEDAY
Someday
someday when blazing blonde turns to grievous gray
yes someday
someday when the wonder which once was has patently passed impatiently away
someday
someday when joyful leaping is replaced by reaping muscles that ache
someday
someday when graceful grins are replaced by smiles i can no longer fake
someday
someday when retribution cannot reinstate the contentedness i believed would never
abate
some day
someday when cheerfulness is changed to chagrin and the challengers of my fallow
fate
someday
someday when my being vile vexes me with violence and vilification
someday
someday when cameraderie and solidarity are exchanged for icy stares and isolation
someday
someday when what i know becomes facts i wish i'd never known
someday
someday when enmity envelops enlightenment and leaves a soul such as mine all
alone
someday
someday when the thorough thrill of requieted romance is relegated retroactively and
urged to take its away
someday
someday when satisfaction seceeds to the seeds of stagnation which defy even that
which sages may say
someday
someday when frailty was birthed by addiction and too many amoral men years ago
yes someday
alas, with surity for me that someday summarily and sorrowfully arrived at least ten
years ago
