On a Second Thought

on a second thought
sometimes I wish 
I was never here 
on a second thought
I was made to be here 

sometimes I want to fight
on a second thought
I think about it outcome
if it worth it 

sometimes I wish for 
what I need 
what I don't have 
and It was ment to be 
my right 
I grow anger in this thought but 
on a second thought 
I realise it could be 
better for my peace

sometimes we just 
need that second thought
 
sometimes I cry 
for the world 
but on a second thought
I realise we are the problem
of ourselves

sometimes we want 
what kills us quick
sometimes we run to 
our destruction so quick
sometimes we are too
ignorant to listen 
to the voice within
on a second thought 
remember wisdom is 
always and will ever be 
better than silver and gold
