Wasted Days
A canopy of green
Branches overhead
Encase us
As we speed through and around the curvy road
Into the unknown..
X X X X X
The unknown now I know
And never got to see the beautiful trees,
Only drove there to drive back
Another useless day
Arguing, wasting away
A day I'll never get back
Just like last fall
I was excited to see all the different colors
Of the trees as their leaves fall
As they prepare for winter
Who knew death could look so beautiful and alive?
But the same thing happened
Another pointless day
Wasting days
Days I'll never get back
