When Will There Be a Next Time

Chad Carlson


Notice of absence from Chad Carlson
Hey everyone. I'm taking this time to thank everyone that has read my poems, everyone that left comments, taken the time to start a conversation, and Thank you Mason for handing me my first loss in a few years. Like I said you came hard and I respect that.

I'm taking some time to step back and focus on my ever expanding health issues as well as getting into a strong mindset for my upcoming 7th spinal fusion operation. I appreciate you all. This is not goodbye like The Terminator I'll be back... And much like Terminator my spine will be metal.

By Chad Carlson 

Sitting in the sun

Thinking of old times past

Alone in isolation

Will these memories be the last

Writing these few lines

Hoping to strike a nerve

Maybe to rekindle

The flame that once burned

The memories once so vivid

Are slowly starting to fade

As Time goes by with no reply

I start to feel betrayed

I feel like you're not listening

Like you never really cared

Was your entire plan for us

To cause misery and despair

The test of time has proven

What I should've known from the start

Although you had ALL my love

I never really had your heart

  • Comment from author about the poem: Low point in my life when I couldn't find a single friend to do anything with. Right after my long time girlfriend decided she wanted space so she could sleep with my boss without it being cheating* (*anymore... I later found out that she had been cheating on me with him for months prior... Glad that I didn't know that at the time... He ended up firing me for missing a shift that he cleared me to take off for a doctor's appointment. I got my job back after contacting corporate but was "promoted" to AGM and was put in charge of 5 restaurants so I wouldn't ever have to work with him again. Perhaps I should write about that.)
