Basin

Basin

Another's mistake, imprints in the white fallen snow.

Did I lose or did I win a price so very low.

His problems become mine, instead of acting appalled, I hide it stand remaining waiting.

I found him crying in the basin, the water surrounding him was over powering his fear belying his eyes.

Because he was belligerent in his misfortune that he caused he just pushed me away with out any thought

Quick movement just a long steady pause.

If he made my life so worthless, why am I over come with unsure ness?

He's culpable for all that's happened.

Lately he's gone and its dad that hates me.

When he's yelling my eyes water,

I'm tired of wondering, during this where is it that you are?

My friends they, most don't understand, they tell me that I have their so called helping hand

But right when they leave they don't care or it's me they don't believe.

They talk-they walk away-I cry- I wonder.

Then it comes down to this...

Is this life a nightmare that seems so real?

And if so how am I supposed to deal with it.

I'm walking a road so endless

A mess winding

My life spiraling downward

He yells, I sit eyes fixed on the picture of you and me.

A tear rolls slightly down my face for I have predicted your fate…

I wish dear brother it wasn't too late

We will sit here at least I will, and just wait.

He yells and I slam the door

My friends the talking doesn't end

Gossip

They want more.

I, I'm losing it crying on the front steps at heavens door just Pleading.

The rain begins to pour

And motionless I try to grab your wet hand but here we are and I am crying I can not stand no longer

I sit beside you in a blurry state in the basin filled with water snow and sand.
