PACE


What make a person wise? Time?
What makes a person forget? Time?
What makes a person strong? Courage?
We have such little time. It seems to go by way to fast.
No time for family, no time to complete everything that needs to be done.
Time is something we can not control and never know when it’s up.
I think that maybe some people’s time can cut short.
Maybe by themselves or someone else.
Time is precious, bitter, and sweet.
Time can bring happiness and heartache.
One thing we can never do is get more time.
But there are things time can give us.
Courage! We learn courage over time dealing with life, but sometimes it’s not enough.
Courage has gotten me a lot of things but courage can not fix this.
My heart aches! My mind wonders!
I have replayed it a million times.
This could have all been avoided!
Not only ones mother have to deal with what she has caused, I also have to deal with what she has done as well as my brothers.
She not only took four lives, she also took six more souls on that night.
They are my brothers and mine.
Senseless stupidity! No more needs to be said.
