Life in view

It was Sunday morning


And the day was bright with son


Church and chapel


Peal the bells of one


And I wonder just what good and bad


In my life I have done


 


So you see me on a road to dead


You pass my soul


In truth we are wed


A couple of dreamers


Enough has been said


 


I have tasted the water of dream that is cold as life


I have slept with an angel


Yet she is not my wife


 


We walk the edges of  faith like a knife


A rest in believing as sin is wild and free


Like the will of deceiving


Some day I will be


On a road of grieving


You for you and me for me


 


Though I walk the shadow still in man I see hope, love hangs as the balance of hate, eyes cast in sorrow, I pick up my rock hoping to end the torture, mark my soul with my own sin, try to end the tragic existence called man, cross on a hill, wall that cries blood, drops of rain a new soul born, wash me clean in promise dreams, let me part a sea of dreams, Though I walk the shadow still in man I see hope, love hangs as the balance of hate, eyes cast in sorrow, I pick up my rock hoping to end the torture, mark my soul with my own sin, try to end the tragic existence called man, cross on a hill, wall that cries blood, drops of rain a new soul born, wash me clean in promise dreams, let me part a sea of dreams,


 


Tribute to the person


Each wish common theme


 


Little pages gilded in gold


Restitution life some is sold


 


shifting sands never grow old


like the fingers to heaven


 


simple bow head


and hands I do fold


 


In the quiet of forever do we live or do we die


In hope and understanding does he smile or does he cry


Oh mother of life time


Who and what am I
