Fourever
which vision is seen clearer,
the smoke or the mirrors
the believers or the fearers
the far offs or the nearers
we all want to just believe
what is possible to conceive
we stick it out so to retrieve
what back then seemed too naive
yet we're on a one-way street
time marches ne'r to repeat
slicing our hours into discrete
ol' man time we cannot cheat
enjoying now and who we are
hands dip in life's cookie jar
life's blips flash on our radar
accept it's sometimes just bizarre
we may think we're some whomever
our names forgotten after successor
life apart can still be together
we're intertwined in time forever
living in past is not much choice
lessons learned from distant voice
sustain today with grace and poise
life and living we need to rejoice
