POETRY OF LOVE

The Last Chance

By Shelley BowerPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I have heard and seen so many things

Now it's hard to discern the truth from what is a lie

I know you have said before

What they say is just nothing but lies

But could it really be

Could you be alive

I have searched my heart and soul

I have searched the whole world over

Looking for a sign for some clue

Looking for someone that might be you

My heart is heavy and my mind, confused

So lost am I

So lost without you

I look to the sky

I need a sign, please send Michael my way

His smile and songs brought so much joy

Every day I was like a kid at Christmas

Getting a new toy

To hear him singing

To see him dance

Oh just one more time

Please won't you give me just one more chance

One chance to tell him how I feel

Once chance for me to make this real

One last chance to stand by his side

Just one more time to say I love you

To hug you and say goodbye
