Great sadness
brings me .....
bitter pills,
as I swallow
and then wallow
in thier overkill.
With so much more
I could have done
and so much left
I've yet begun,
plus all my unwritten
songs that never
will be sung,
and the hearts
I'd cherished
that never will be won.
Verse-
Kisses that I
failed to share,
and dreams I just
left lying there,
precious hopes
abandoned
everywhere,
leave me haunted
with despair....
If only I could trade the years,
that I have left to face my fears,
I'd go back to each place in time,
to seize those moments left behind.
to dance with possibilties,
that I once swore could never be,
my visions all at last appeased...
and all my lost dreams....reality.
reality......
We only get
four score and ten,
to wander paths
that twist and bend,
until at last
we finally reach that end,
to find that "life"
was our best friend.
Our best friend....
and perhaps upon
the other side,
we'll find all of our longings
left denied,
are waiting there
to be realized,
on Heavens shores,
uncompromised.
uncompromised.
My time on earth
is shorter then,
all of my failings
way back when,
I guess acceptance is the key
forgiving all I could not be.
there is so much I still can do,
till my soul sails beyond these blues...
beyond these blues...
