But I Did Not

Would I be awakened where the wrong side renders?

would I be a dangling toward demise?

forgetting about the innocent splendors?

and rage blinding my eyes?

could have slouched into deception

could have just made it make more sense

accept the devilish invitation?

should I just sit upon this fence?

no, I won?t let go

take in the herald I hear a harking

against the bone yard hounds a barking

almost went to bed hating it

almost managed to manifest

tormented by stating it

a situation so self obsessed

felt like burning down the home

felt like buying me a gun

felt like I was all alone

felt like taking it all on the run

people just smiling at the sun shining

seeing the dark clouds? silver lining

hearing the happy children a chirping

sacrifice sometimes is just timing

feel so much you can?t stand it

feel the love that lives inside it

realize that life is but a minute

until I finally found you in it

no, I won?t let go

against the haunting howls a hounding

give it all a god almighty pounding
