My Brain Got Derailed
my life is good
but right now it has derailed
and it is true,
it hurts,
but care and love –
is not something lack
my train has derailed
someone set us a test
but we will not fail
my leaning tower need not collapse
and i think i left them at the the station
but i cannot go back
i did not know there was a plot
or that times was limited
and that was their stop
i always write in pen and ink
i try to write an interesting plot
i stop and then i think
have i found the perfect picnic area
out there on the brink
i know i must not fall over
my life is good
but my, it has taken a beating
but i know it will not be beaten
