Things Running Thru His Mind

a memory of love in the distant past aches that clings to the heart like rust is the feeling real? is the feeling true? does he really deserve to feel so blue? she was everything that he ever wanted he loved her for longer than was expected is it right to love her beyond logic and reason? to let the love go on thru the changing of seasons? she was his angel, his eternal flame thru years that passed his feelings stayed the same would it be right to really take a chance? to love her still and go on living in a trance? she meant everything to him, his reason for being but thru the years he had only been dreaming is it time to wake up? time to accept it all? or should he stay mesmerized and enthralled? she thinks he is a pest, a nuisance at best from contacting her she wishes he would rest would it be best to give up and move on? or end it all and from this world be gone? these are the things that runs thru his mind why had his fate been bad, been truly unkind? now he struggles as his self he tries to preserve he already had more pain than anyone could ever deserve is he paying for some unknown evil deed? is he reaping the fruits of a karmic seed? answers and peace he is trying hard to find as he ponders on things running thru his mind
