Inquisitive

Inquisitive On this at at this time I feel what is missing It rarely shows itself but does now Why I don’t know? The very rare feeling missing is this That I have no family of my own No blood lines to continue my lineage My parents are dead and I’ve no siblings Nor do I have and children of my own Not in that very specific regard This last stings and causes me The melody that visited me now And in the hours as I lay dozing Wondering how it would be If my life was normal in that ways With a nice gal the same as me Who saw the world thru similar eyes Gave me 6 kids who are my own kind Or even different that’s fine As half of my blood is in their veins But none of that ever happened Nor ever will not in this life Except in my dreams since the 1980s I never did get it right with gals Or family matters so it’s a What if? Just like my mythical Royal Air Force career If I could turn the clock back I would But that’s not possible except in dreams It’s fine for I accept my life actions and myself I exist in the Kingdom of Nick and I did good In all areas in life except the missing one I shed no tears for my alternate history MAJOR INSOMNIA CORPORAL SLEEP Nick Armbrister and other writers
