5 MINUTES

Thomas J. Dooley

5 Minutes -

As 22 years of life flashes by

No time to celebrate the new life

 

Life can be full with broken promises

Is forgiveness one of them

 

5 Minutes -

As a mother wonders why

Why doesn't the tears bring back life


To live is everyone's right

No one should choose to die


5 Minutes -

No time for quick decisions

No choice but to blame the victim


Could we forgive this

Should we forgive this


5 Minutes - 

No time to plan for the next day

No time to prepare to pass away


Is there words for healing 

What are the words we are needing


5 Minutes -

Alone in the dark

As the pain burns through the heart
