Three Seconds Between Joy Or Pain Poem by Timothy Weiermann

Three Seconds Between Joy Or Pain

Rating: 5.0


My heart is racing
My nerves breaking
Tension’s heavy in the air

Euphoria’s waking
My body shaking
Tensed for a scare

Numbing joy
Or shattering pain
One is inevitable,
Like the coming rain

Three seconds
Free of both pain and joy
Three seconds to wait
Feeling like the smallest boy

Either ways... joy or pain surfaces on both ends, its just that the two can never come at the same time! A 10.

Very nice. I really like the rhythm and rhyme of this as well as the unique theme. If you don't mind, I have one little suggestion. I feel that the last line would flow a bit better if you removed the words 'of a'. Other than that, it's great. Well done.
