Change Poem by Phil Soar

I turned the corner, and the whole world changed
A minor error, but resulting pain
A life no more, all meaning expired
And all because my mind was tired
Retreating into a world so blind
No welcome words, nor help, is kind
No way to replace the minutes lost
The past is gone, but at what cost
You wake, you play each day again,
You try and ease the daily pain
Requesting help, no option for
The feelings that you can't ignore
Distress of an astounding kind
Envelops peace, destroys the mind
One minute replayed countless times
Avoiding all the obvious signs
Not seeking help, Not hoping for
A will to carry on no more
I turned the corner, The whole world changed
A minor error, Resulting pain
A life expired, A life destroyed
No longer, life can be enjoyed
