Lesson

Silently 
Staring at the merry go round 
Of the living ball of fire
The moment ran away from me
The heart got heavier and heavier
Slowly the thoughts were creeping 
Inside my brain 
The voice is silent
And silent it remains
But I did hold onto my beliefs
Sometime now the voice will crack
But no! It was never meant to be
The voice was never mean to reach me
This moment had a lesson to teach me
But I haven’t still learned 
And I don’t ever think I will
