I Weep

In the arms of present
where past is long forgotten
     there i weep.
Reminisching old memories
the failures known by the past
the gloating glories of the past
     there i weep.
Letting go of thoughtlessness
letting go of childish pleasure
     there i weep.
     I weep
As i let go the things behind me
as i embrace the futures glory
      i weep.
There where eeries note is heard
there where eeries note holds the omens of time
     there i weep.
     there i weep.
I weep for the dead of yesterday,
i weep for the joy of tomorrow untold,
i weep for the glories ahead,
     i weep.
I weep as i lay hold my conviction
as i embrace the pains of today
for the pleasures of tomorrow
     there where eeries note
     holds the omens of time
     There i weep.
     There i weep.
