If I Had A Nickel

17

I broke for a moment

In the blink of an eye

I lost my mind

Died a little inside

I scared someone else

And saw in myself

A change, a disaster

I sat back and cried

"Who is this person,

This isn't me..."

I shook and trembled

Thinking this cannot be

The thing is, I slipped

Lost reality's grip

And the dreadful truth;

I am not the first.
