Day To Day
I reached out to touch you
but it wasn’t about your skin
to slide my mind upon your heart
to reach who you are within
Mankind looks upon your shell
not upon the life inside
they only see the shoreline
not the ocean where you reside
I remember being young of heart
my mind was bonded to what’s old
where experience has laid the paths
and repetition the stories told
Another day has come and gone
the minutes that I’m given are delight
too soon will come my feebleness
my loss of mind and sight
But if I should ever lose
all that I am within
I would wish that you remember
all the love you have to spend
