OFF THE BRIM

For a reason
for good, for bad
for god knows whose treason
for me, for you for my lad
for a day when time stood still
for a time i went numb
when i could feel the guilt
when all i did was succumb
to the pain i felt in my heart
to the wonder of the meticulous part
for it did give me an insight
it did justice to my plight
the way i see it
it has always been there
i just had to do the requisite
i had to just let it sink in
and it all went off the brim....
