G. Pop

Five minutes of joy
Then ten minutes of pain
Everlasting life is inundated by rain.

Denial awakens at dawn
From lying within your sheets
Chanting frustration and verification...
Verification that still remains asleep...

Then anger presents itself
Seeking to nibble at your heels
Until your skin peels
Begging to be one with your descendant son

And it does...
It does...

Cause former joy
To be inundated by rain
Thinking about the times
Of unmerited pain

Unmerited pain...
And then the bargaining begins

Echoes of past times doing pasttimes
For the last time
Meanders through your mind...
As you plead for more time..

But there is none...
There is none...

Depressive ideologies
Mocks your philosophies
Of future practicalities
Becoming nonexistent possibilities

That amounts to nothing-ness...
Nothing-ness...

Causing former joy
To be inundated by rain
Thinking about the times
Of unmerited pain

Unmerited pain...

Until at dusk,
Your acceptance of the truth
Tastes like a bitter fruit
Sour and uncouth
Begins to take root

And there's nothing you can do
But reflect on memories to get you through

Memories to get you through...
