Distant Memories

Distant memories cahoots into night As slumber, she tries to festoon me. Voices of my distant past, they get bright, loved and dear ones of past come up for me to see. Sometimes can clearly hear them call Is this real or just another dream? Just feel through the tunnel I reel & fall And the noises shrill fill up the night with screams. I repent for having given, Such a wee bit to mend & resolve I know in this life have been forgiven But some mysteries have been left for me this life to solve. As life she carries on.. I keep pursuing my dreams Young years are past & gone Noises that linger are more than shrill screams The screams they pierce My brooding heart As my thoughts grow bold & fierce Random choked memories don’t depart Distant memories still cahoots into the nights As slumber, she tries to festoon me. Voices of my distant past, they get bright, loved and dear ones of past come up for me to see.
