Poem
Within a lifetime.... love has gained yet has also lost Handed down from all humanities heaviest cost A child was born then at last will die The prolific pass of steam branded new lulabye Within a lifetime filled with mutual success A latent cavity spurn then transgress Shades filled with sorrow amidst its darkened gloom The love embrace sought shoulder to cry no go clean your room In the grand scheme of things hero sings Really it doesn't seem to matter not a thing Shallow briars through parchment claim Some leaves blow in a filter through its shaded trees others long to wither with the weather holding fast onto hidden dreams Yet keep all of your dreams to your self cause no one seems to care If one gets a hold of your dreams they can steal them I swear There is no great need by which to pretend Within a stretched lifetime my good friend Heaven has shaped its burden he took In grief our internal sorrow broke To each spotless lamb a line being drawn in the sand Within thoughts unleashed to wither in its untimely disaster Then plagued by fears in preparing for the great hereafter Some may be even eager to equate certain delegated philosophy A ravaged heart drifting straight up stream by evil means One is equates response left unaided like glue yet who knew Ravaged in certain peril drifting straight up stream The love embrace sought shoulder to cry In distant plight taught the eagle to fly Within every human heart there beats a certain fixed meelody An exquisite taste filled with humble pie nor that in apathy We are living in very dangerous times yet still our nation has settled for ill but faded rhymes taught to help another brother as a soilder Pilgrim soilder by which to rely heaven fly by Pilgrims on a delegated quest to their final rest Child of mercy fly to the eagles nest like a test
