Perhappens

as im sittng here
feeling kinda numb
breathing the air
yet not so lonesome

tears have ran dry
in a wondering maze
glancing into the sky
blankly I daze

caught up in a moment
thinking of nothing
life just so happens, dont it
 then the phone rings

here one moment
gone the next
everything is constant
make every second chance

what counts is last
why not make it first
when that day comes to past
for the cost is hurt

I pray for everyone, 
prevent..... Amen
