Life


Life is short,
time's contort.
Make something new to replace the old
but never do what can't be told.
Others believe in what they see,
but what I don't get is how they plea.
I travel here, I travel there,
in my dreams I smell the air.
I look beyond where I am blind,
I look behind to nothing kind.
There seems no end to worries and woes,
my life has always gone too slow.
I worry here I worry there,
my thoughts are racing everywhere.
I wish I knew what I deem,
I wish I saw what can't be seen.
My life has raced before my eyes,
it's time for me to say good bye.
