The Shadow of Me
It was a long time ago, in another age Where the shifting of the wind Knew where I began A place so far away, Somewhere distant, in childhood country Before the fog had set in, Before time lost all trace of me Where have they gone? Those merry dancers with whom I played? When we were queens of the carnival, kings of the parade? Before being dethroned to mid-life corners Hearing the music, without playing the drums They tell me to take this age with grace Yet everywhere I turn, is young I'm still the same, I have not changed I lived a time where love was wild and thoughts were too With high regard, when eyes were glued Now inside I'm torn in two...the old and the new Trapped between this nowhere place Myself and someone else Until each barrier becomes a bridge... Have I been shaped too square by passing years, to fit in circle's place? My memory recalls those beautiful tomorrows Now long buried in yesterday's ground There are other ways to measure time Besides growing older and graying hair Recorded music fills the room Left playing from an earlier time When October skies showed fading traces Of empty days and sad old faces The "others" of whom I had no fear Now those shadowed remnants from my past Are stalking at my heels Will somebody care to ask? Will anyone need my mind? Is there something they want to tell me? Will they patronize, or just be kind? Care enough, make me useful, give me value, call me beautiful?.... Not yet the age I'll someday be Still, I feel the sting of losing me How I ache for all those love songs How I ache for someone needing, someone pleading... For advice....for my worth, for an answer, will they want me? How it haunts me.....Will they see me? Touching me....reminding me of who I am................not just who I was... __________________________________
