One Moment

One moment you are breathing And then in the very next moment you're not, One moment you're cool and relaxed And then in the next moment you're burning hot. One moment you could had been saved Then in that one moment your soul was for sale, But, you decided to wait a little bit longer Then in that very next moment you're burning in hell. One moment you owe a debt Then the very next moment that debt could be erased, That one moment you decided to keep the debt a bit longer That obligation that you owe you see as a waste. One more moment you then decided to ponder So, now you just give more broken promises, You hope that they will forget your debt owed Then in that moment your lenders become doubting Thomas's. One moment you are forever all alone Because no one loves or trusts or wants you, Everyone you knew you had used and lied to and stole from Then in the next moment you realized what you put them through. One moment you are in sadness and remorse From all the wrongs and hates you carried in your basket, One more moment you then decided that you would wait to empty it out Then in that one moment. you're in your casket. One moment you're preparing to apologize For all the evil and sins that you had done and said, As you prepare you now wished that you had apologized sooner Then the very next moment you lay dead. One moment you were very sorry You finally sought absolution and you wanted to be forgiven, But, you instead had waited a moment to long In this moment now you are no longer with the living. Randy L.
