Mediocre Poems

L A P S E S

A slip or error, often of a trivial sort; failure: a lapse of memory.

This is for the people that didn't make it to see 2016

I feel for all of you guys that lost someone this year

I can be here today and gone tomorrow with the blink of an eye, but would you care?

This is for all the time that was lost

I could say that I know right from wrong

I rather not lie and tell the truth, if I can

I don't get off by lying to people

I tell the truth and shame the devil as the elders say

Can you forget everything that was said and done?

Clearly, I don't feel for you anymore

Really?

I can't, my memory isn't that faded

Staying calm, cool and collected is what I try to do

When did you stop trying?

You know, you need to forgive those who wronged you, but never forget

You should not only forgive people for hurting you

You should also forget that they ever hurt you

Forgive and forget?

I'm not made that way

I don't hold resentment from the past, but how can you forget?

Can you forget about a drive by shooting killing a beloved family member?

I'm sorry, but I can't

I watched the time change over from 7:05 to 7:06 pm

This is for reading poetry pieces

I complained

Stop

I complained

Stop

I freaking complained

Please stop

I freaking complained

Please stop

I can't believe that

Continue

I can't believe all of those things

I didn't mean to complain...and those words...

The end

Movies over

Roll the credits

There's no hidden scenes at the end
