Living with memories of yesterday’s dream,
always wondering of what could have been,
lost in life’s maze of horrors and schemes,
fighting for survival where you can not win.
Life is an adventure filled with ups and downs,
where our reality blends with mindful illusions,
people and places so many cities so many towns,
traveling the high road in the mist of confusion.
Knowing love and laughter hold the magical key,
brings us a presence of mind so we can survive,
treachery often will change what is and could be,
as spirits united in hopes of peace stand divided.
Haunted by the dark shadows of history’s sorrow,
thoughts linger in memories of within our mind,
what once was and what will be, both are borrowed,
in an ageless universe our events disappear in time.
The forces shift in the sand with the ocean waves,
casting doubts spurred by memories from our past,
death linger and from it’s grasps we can’t be saved,
from dust to dust, ashes to ashes, nothing will last.
