I Miss Life

I miss the morning dews of the greener grass The whispering wind in the morning of a summer’s day I miss the startling rays of the sun The sun so bright that it imposes a smile on my face I miss the morning breeze I used to feel When I woke up, and my blood would move in a hurried haste I miss it when I had to do what I love doing, what I am good at The challenges that left me tired My imagination roaring with endless thoughts I miss those times when I.... Oh, I miss life! I miss the sunsets and the moonlights The rise of the dawn and morning breeze I miss the times when time used to move along with me I felt I was going somewhere I miss it when I used to have dreams And believed that not an armed crook would succeed At sneaking into my head and put my thoughts at gunpoint And suggest that I stop whatever it is I’m trying to achieve Or he’ll have to shoot my babies in my head, before they could be born Oh, I loved my babies...I love my babies...
