Breathe Again

Did I really have years of experience? 
or years of daily repeats. Repeats definitely 
then I must indeed say 

 my confidence has suffered. 

My experiences come with pain, 

In my love life or my work experience. 

As I get older, I think I am developing a more of 

I don’t give a , what people think of me 

And once again, that stupid question 

About who will attend my funeral, 

Who I have a big turnout etc. 

Who cares, just buried me under 

That old mahogany tree, my father planted 

Years ago...It would be sheltered me from 

From the harsh world, my final resting place, 

Love, lost, and hardship, they say love can 

Triumph over hardship of any intensity. 

Lost it so finale, can really anybody accept they fate 

Did you think my x , accept his death, 

Do he aware that he left us, last 

February, would he have returned in someone else body 

To dupe me again, into a retake of his mishaps/his lost. 

 
The ones who tell the best story 
Is the most observant one, to the craft? 
A river is a body of water 
With lot of stories to tell 
Sadness and happiness, that was cast upon me.

Dramatic forsure, Annie. First time to visit your page. I think you're right to come to the conclusion that we spend to much time worrying or thinking about what other think of us or our thoughts or behaviors. Buried under the mahogany sounds peaceful to me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. Bill
