At Least You Have 13 Seconds: At least you have 13 seconds. You could have happiness, and love, and presumably everything good, yet in a matter of 13 seconds it could dissapear. In 13 seconds a heart could be lifted, and then all of a sudden drop. In 13 seconds a world could have peace and then break out into war. In 13 seconds I could stop writing this and commit the grand sin. All this in an amount of 13 seconds. Yet continually people live on. Some with lives of terror and a countable few with joy, and do you know why we live? Because some of us are positive and realize at least we have life, at least we have love. All a man really needs in life is, and will forever be, true love. It is the love that picks us up when we are down. Yet in 13 seconds that love can contradict itself into hate. And if you have lost everything, including love, then I say this: At least you have 12 seconds. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

Powerful poem, DD. Good job. I'm still trying my "inspirational" piece. You hit this one out of the park. Keep up the sensational work, man. ~_^ Eternal life without the darkness isn't life at all- it is a lobotomy. |

Ah, very nice poem DD. In fact, would you mind if I printed this out and put it in my poetry book? It's very few poems that hit me just right to want to keep them with me so that I can read them whenever I want, but this is one of them. "Sa souvraya niende missian ye." \ I am lost in my own mind. |
