How to Change
How did I get here?
How did this happen?
A choice masked
by distractions
that fueled a systematic
chain reaction
So, all I have now
are memories;
but time is an enemy
that eventually
will be the end of me
There's got to be
another way
to take back yesterday
and watch
the clocks grey face
melt and fade away
Instead;
I'm in this ambulance
doing ninety five
Swerving; merging;
taking out curbs
while I slowly die
Times run out,
am I still alive?
I'll take a knife
and another life
before I say goodbye
Now its my turn,
my vision blurred;
my last thoughts
before I leave this earth
are that of her
