Going, Going, Gone...

by .K.i.T.t.Y.   Jul 13, 2007


Sitting in the sidelines,
Gazing across the field,
Watching the play of my life,
Slip through my fingertips.

All the loud cheers,
Muffled.
Every sense of victory,
Washed.

As the last seconds tick,
Suspension fades,
The knowledge of loss
Is evident.

Why must the game go on,
When the outcome
Has been decided,
And the players continue to suffer.

----
Ick. That wasn't too wonderful...
I was cleaning out my papers, when I found a version of this. I slightly fixed it up...

If you think it's good, read it again.
