Time
Kai McC Dec 2013
Today is the first day
Of the rest of my life
Today is the last day
Of the past

We judge time
But we don't know
How long it will last

Today, tomorrow, yesterday
Minute, second, hour
It's all just a moment in time

Why do we care so much to know
How long we've been here
How long we've survived
Dominos waiting to fall in a line

My People Are Happy
Kai McC Jun 2014
Of all the thoughts on my mind, none can compare to
The feelings of emptiness, despair, and lack of hope
Brought to me by the challenge of a new day
Why can happiness and I not elope?

I always feel like dancing when we re-unite
Swaying gently on a breeze
Glistening in the light
But then fear and dread begin to seize

And the next thing I know...
I've dropped like lead
Cold, hard, motionless
I don't leave my bed

Days go by before I feel that way again
And I'm never sure if it is I who feel it
Or some character in a book I read
I feel as if I shall go mad and throw a fit

Why do I go on?
What is the purpose?
You have left me.
I can't resurface

Happiness, my love, where have you gone?
Why have thou deserted me?

A Possible Picture
Kai McC Sep 2014
That moment when...
You can't even begin

Because your lost inside a thought
Thinking of all that life has brought

Where do you go now
Where do you go how

I dont know where
I dont know how to get there

But I got a picture

A picture of where I want to be
It's you I want to see

Laugh with me
Teach me the key

Of finding your way
Of everything being okay

I know I can do it

Nothing Goes Away
Kai McC Apr 2014
Things are as they once were
As they once were, they are

They will be as they once were
As they once were, they will be

They are as they will be
As they will be, they are

*Nothing goes away

How can you?
Kai McC Apr 2012
Between all the things I've done
and all the things I'll do
How can you believe me when I say
I love you?

How can you know it's true?
When all I've ever done is lie to you

— The End —
