I'm not asking you to read this
nor asking if you need this,
but because I wrote this for you
I wonder if you will,
and whether you do.

Friday
and there are better things out there
and sometimes there are not,

what to do?

If I burst the bubble
could be I'll get into trouble
or maybe
just plummet to my death
holding my breath
hoping that Jesus
saves,

but the graveyard is full of people
who came down hard
people who thought they knew better
but knew no better and in the end it
didn't matter,

stay in and be
that's the mantra for me,
what will I be?
is the question.
