A Poem Taken From "FRACTURE"

July

Taken in an instant...
Within the blinking of an eye...
Did you sell yourself short...
Was your truth an elaborate and complicated lie?

Taken once for granted...
Yet you never will again...

Living for the moment?
Or an attempt to justify this sin?

Never leave me wondering...
If you ever gave a damn...


Cherish every moment...
And never forget who I am...

Still waiting for a future...
That is never sure to come...

And when it's all done and over...
I'm left alone, here cold and numb...

So, cherish every daybreak...
And every early dawn...

And grant me one last favor...
Don't forget me when I'm gone...

As the sky fills up with darkness...
And pours down upon your empty soul...

Let it fill you up with sunshine...
As I lie within this hole...

Gather up these ashes...
As they scatter thru these fields...

For all that truly matters...
Is in the end our fate is sealed.
