A Better Man
Am I a better man today
Than yesterday? Who knows
Outwardly nobody can say
Inwardly there I was..
I was, this pretty much describes
Me in the present tense
I’m living in the past that dies
Within a plot I sense
It saves a better life for us
That’s where I belong
Isn't in something you may trust
Apart of life that's gone
Those days with darling love I keep
In files of memory
I never thought it goes that deep
Deeper than we can see.
