Wasting Time

I have something to tell you. I have to say it right away for if I don't something bad may happen to you today. I really don't want to say it because I know you will hate it, but there's noting I can do to rehabilitate it. So I might as well say it so it will be over and done. Holding all this bad news inside me isn't much fun. Please do not run when I tell you this thing and please do not cry because it would cause me much pain. I wish you the best even though I bring you the worst. This bad news is like a curse. Why did I have to be the one to tell it to you!? Why couldn't it be another to tell you these words so cruel? As a mule I am too stubborn to speak. But I must tell you or my friends will call me weak. I seek only happiness but today I did not find. These words I have to tell you lay heavily on my mind. Time is running out with every word I speak. I must tell you now or forever hold my peace. For someone may die if I don't tell you now. I am sorry to say all is not well. So I must go on and tell you what I came here to tell...well I did have something to say. You must believe this is true why else would I come here and be saying all this to you? Give me a moment and it will all come back. I don't know why but sometimes my mind gets off track. How could I lack remembering such a thing? Well, if anyone gets hurt tell them I was to blame. I'm sorry I just can't remember...so I guess you'll never know. But I'm even more sorry you just wasted your time reading this here poem!
