Gone Are the Days

Teary eyes starring upon the night skies
Winter moon at its brightest
Time gone never coming back,
Only memories will pass by.

Alone in thoughts of emotions;
Should have,could have, too late!
Crippling mind harassed by regrets...
Soul whipped by the past.

These are the wounds of life;
Lessons of ignorance,
Listening indeed is a skill,
Life a patient teacher
