It happened long ago
But there were things
That made it feel not so
Still here, am I
Waiting for it to sink in
An unknown explanation
A story I don't know how to begin
Yet, it happened so many years ago
And you can make it feel
Like something I'd never know
The heart still beats for you
Even though you didn't hold on
What was I to do
You were already gone
Never in a million
Was it supposed to be this way
It happened more than I knew
Each and every day
Fought the darkness that abounds
To make it home intact
Avoided hell's hounds
Hoping for promises to be fact
Then hell rose up from below
And life took its solemn turns
A day you didn't show
Forever followed the flames' burns
About the Creator
Jason Morton
From fiction to reality there’s tons to share about this crazy life. From being a single father, an officer, and having had many insane adventures while I learned about the world, my imagination runs wild with ideas.
