Gone One Way

Gone One Way by Jack A.S. Dunce Bailed out from a lost and listing ship Plunged down headlong the dark murky deep This is bound to be a one way trip Everything lost in just a moment's slip Past mistakes all came at once to reap Bailed out from a lost and listing ship In the deep, with life, one must come to grip as there are no tears here for those who weep This is bound to be a one way trip The sands of time slowing down to a drip All ears caught by a cold strident beep Bailed out from a lost and listing ship A whole lifetime but no more than a blip Wide awake in a dream not mine to keep This is bound to be a one way trip A sad ballad stuck on loop and skip Waking up from a long restless sleep Bailed out from a lost and listing ship This is bound to be a one way trip ©️pgmr 06/02/2024
