New Life

What became of me, where did I slip off at A past long forgotten stirs inside of me Memories and photographs Faces long forgotten, names I'll never recall but voices in my mind, flashes before the fall Today is new, and yesterday is past fresh is time, today will last.... only for a moment Awake today, from a dark black hole thank God for friends who care... Mortality is real today when death seemed only a breath away

Michael, I decided to come to the bottom of your page and I see that you posted very wisely for your first one! How appropriate to have this one entitled New Life as the beginning of your posts here at Soup! I see that you are drawn to free verse and to reflective poetry. That is wonderful!! My favorite part of this is when you mixed in a bit of rhyming and what you were saying:today is new, and yesterday is past. .. today will last. . . only for a moment. So sadly true!
