Thought You Had It All

You were just another player On the merry go round of life You thought you had it all Never thought the ride would stop You never saw it coming The abrupt halt and Your world crumbling down Left with nothing but old fantasies Vanishing like sand through your fingers Left with nothing but delusions Devastation and fake friends who never call Alone facing the bitter fear that You’ll end your days flying solo AP: 3rd place 2020 Submitted January 31, 2018 for contest ELOQUENT BANTER: YOU TEASE ME SO NICELY sponsored by EDWARD McCALL
