Blindside Nightmare

Something that happened to a friend

Minding your own business, just trying to get along

 

When a flash of lightning, a blink of the eye,

 

And everything's different, life changed forever

 

You never saw it coming, this blindside nightmare

 

Brings you to your knees, never ending,

 

Trapped in this downer with little hope for tomorrow

 

You never in a million years would have predicted this,

 

A bad dream that goes on and on and on

 

Black surrounds you; what is color?  You've forgotten

Yes, it can happen any time. You simply can't prepare for what life is going to do to you. Sometimes it's almost impossible to hang on.

Yeah, it can get quite overwhelming sometimes!

In the blink of an eye anything can happen that will change life forever. It is a fragile thing, this happiness we cling to. A poem to make you think. Nice job.
