Images of a New Day

How can it be that destiny falls down Around me in the spirited night only To disregard me in the daylight When history repeats itself and Grown men feel the need to cry I will chain my soul to the moon Howl at the sun and forever beg for Mercy for I am the missing link in My own story and I laugh at the irony Of a life well-lived still falling short A head in the stars still woefully grounded Imagination is the key to longevity and Without a doubt I will live for awhile
