Not Allowed In Today

The past doth forget me
The future remembers me no more
The sun doth excuse herself
I stand dismissed from her warmth
The moon looks the other way

The stars twinkle not
The moon shuns me in disdain
The ocean roar ceases
The waves roll only away
Whilst the wind stands still in time

I ponder in wearyness
Perplexed seems my lot
As I gaze into black sky
Upon noon days breath so hot
Recapture me time, for I am now lost

Lost in the past
Forgotten by the day
Tomorrow not coming
So in my space I stay
Forgotten by yesterday, not allowed in today

Oh, Rodney, hurts, this...as, I, well, know this, inside, all too well... and its so hard, at times to enter, when even the 'moon shuns...'
Your heart is so open, one could cry, you allow so many in and make them feel 'allowed in'...
so good to see you once more, been in a darkness and here, this and...
Oh, many
Thanks

The theme seems equatible to a black hole, drawing in all light, and as it has been referred before, pulling back the seas.

I wonder why you chose not to utilize the first "As" in S3, It actually makes for more grammatical concisity.

A sorrowful, soul-ful piece...woven as only you can weave. Beautiful...

If it were not for the darkness, would we then enjoy the light?
