Si Villan Poet Blank verse

Happy Last Year

Happy Last Year

As the clock strikes twelve
And a new year begins
I know that in this hell that's my life
My last year alive creeps in
You all don't know, all living in hope
I hope that this year will bring you great joy, keep you whole
But I know I'm spiralling down at a pace
The end must be nigh just give me some grace
The final countdown on my ticking clock
Is racing, the end of my life stepping up
I don't want to feel like this constantly down
My heart can't take the feeling it's dragging the ground
The voice in my head tells me get in the car
Just drive to the sea and carry on in far
Or down all those pills that you have by your side
And end all your sadness while you're still alive
Happy Last Year...

Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck December 31, 2015 at 9:49 PM Depression of ego leads toward elation of eco-consciousness. Anger, fear, sadness, self and other hatred; all teachers for learning ever more empathic love. Difficult teachers toward more peaceful post-transitions. With thanks and concern, Gerald OLiver
