This is poem that was written when I was laying down by my window at home looking at the sun and thinking about how my life was so good 10 years ago. Now I contemplate what the future holds as I struggle to maintain my passion for life and for the things I love in life.
Memories are meant to be, desire for those long gone,
today is not the same as then, grieve as I stand alone;
Smiles abroad everlasting faith, now pace the world in wonder,
what til this day, has faded away, stealing all my thunder?
Endless sobbing heart deprived of hope within it's cries,
not to this very day have I ever hoped to die;
Smiles abroad everlasting faith, now pace the world in wonder,
what til this day, has faded away, stealing all my thunder?
horizontally declined pelted with beaming rays upon my face,
blind from hovering clouds of fear that fill my eyes with mace;
Smiles abroad everlasting faith, now pace the world in wonder,
what til this day, has faded away, stealing all my thunder?
Anquish engulfing whirl-pools circulating within me now,
spiraling without reason leaving sweat upon my brow;
Smiles abroad everlasting faith, now pace the world in wonder,
what til this day, has faded away, stealing all my thunder?
