One Day
“One day,” they say,
And I’m not sure if it’s
The pity settling in their
Eyes or the undeniable
Weight of my own conscience,
But I don’t quite know if I
Believe them.
“One day,” they say,
Yet all I seem to have is
Today, and not even God
Himself could count all
The pointless hours between
Now and then.
“One day,” they say,
But I’ve seen what the hope
Of one day can do to you.
I watch it devour him,
Shredding his flesh to the
Bare bones like a pack of
Feral dogs.
“One day,” they say,
And I pray that one day
Will not find me devoured
Too, that the promise of
Something doesn’t leave me
With nothing.
“One day.”
