Arrive Alive
Arrive Alive
By: Justin Trigg
Can’t be dead
Life inside
Felt the tide
Up in my head
Move along instead
Hopefully you can arrive
I hope I survive
One a day I can say I am alive
Show to you
Feel to strong
Done it wrong
What can be true
Discover my rues
Say goodbye to the thought I’ll survive
What’s going on when you count to five
Will I even be there when I arrive
Disguise the truth with empty lies
You are the one who will die
Cover my face to stay away from the fog
Nothing left of the tree but a lonely log
Will we be here to say we were alive
Who has a right to say when we’ll arrive
Taking time to waste away in front of a clock
Chancing the romance of every thought blocked
We’ve come just in time to see us fall
Or shall we do what we would if only we could call
Left aside for someone to find a way, a subtle alive
Then just by fate or destiny lays down a grip to survive
Shall never go
Right away
For each day
We’ll know
Who we can show
Maybe we can still survive
If only we can stay alive
Who cares if we even arrive
Took to air
Flight failed
Coffin nailed
Do we even care
Should we still share
A simple play of a notion to arrive
Let us know if we are still alive
And just maybe water likes us to dive
Leave the path searching in the prints of our feet
We could of said there was someone there to greet
On a day where we could have been the happy ones
We would of threw ourselves into every sun
In an hour with the seconds passing five
We can say we are the ones still alive
We’ve traveled on such a desolate road of sorrow
Until the dawn we are left to seek a way to borrow
How are we able to cope when we can’t make sense
When all the stains will fade with a single rinse
Upon these lines to which we must try to thrive
In the time it takes from a to b we are told we’ve arrived
If I had to
Would we
Commit me
What about you
What next to do
How did you say you survived
Was everybody else using knives
And were they really honestly alive
No other deceit
Me you blame
Play the same
Taste of tasty defeat
Keep the drips neat
Much more than remaining just alive
Counting seconds way past five
What to say when the feeling thrives
So much more than just speaking in tones
Deeper than the root under the bones
Can’t journey unless you’re already knowing
So tell me if the trip is worth the going
When we find the highway on which we’ll arrive
One of us pulls the trigger the other is still alive
Record the sounds of the breaking heart
Till the earth crashes down while we fall apart
Circumstances surround the facts of a well missed trial
Soon enough the water will overflow the Nile
But we will be left to say we survived
And that there was nothing we couldn’t of strived

Woah~ I adore this one! I'm keeping it. Like recording it before it's lost. Keep writing. Your poems are so unique. |
