Current Hour

As the hours slowly drift by All my hopes start to die The current hour is two And all I can think about is you I wish you knew I loved you all along I think of you all day I love you in every way Your hair, eyes, charm, and elegance You are just perfect And I am not enough as a person To be worth it all Because of this I fall Deeper into thought You were all I sought The current hour is three And I no longer want to be Alone on this earth No pity or self worth I just do not think anyone will miss me Affection today is a lie I lay awake and cry And inside I just start to die The current hour is four And I am starting to think I don't want to live anymore What did I live my life for I never had a lover Someone I could talk to for hours Make me happy But because of this I am sad And in a sense I am glad No longer should I be a burden To others around me I will set my soul free The current hour is five And I am no longer alive The gun that had sat in my drawer Is now with me on this floor My life no more Copyright 2009 All rights reserved -Matthan C.
