One More Moment
May 1, 2009
Can I borrow your heart?
Just for a while.
So I don’t have to feel this pain,
One more moment of time.
Wishing I could dispose of this misery.
Even though I am stealing your happiness.
I don’t think I can live like this,
For one more second.
I’m sorry for my selfish soul.
Someday, I will return it.
But for now,
Let me keep yours
For just one more moment.

Dang, girl! you have sooo much talent; i love this poem so much! definitely one of my faves. Do us all a favor and keep writing.
Wow! This piece is really deep. I feel like I could relate to your pain you feel. It's really hard to get along in the world these days. One day you could be happy, but the next you're just upset and mad at the world. Keep your head up and smile. The storm will be over soon.
