Life , Deeds, Loving and Solace
Life , Deeds, Loving and Solace
My past acts have sown so very many evil seeds
looking at a yard with many wicked little weeds
No pretty , neat scenes greeting my tearful eyes
no absolutions in spite of so many, many tries
There were the ladies that I did so badly use
then cast away like wornout, old dirty shoes
Too many gave their sweet hearts and their all
to a me that was so arrogant, petty and small
The friends that I ruled so very harsh and quick
no mercy given for I was mad and wickedly sick
Days spent gambling, drowning my life with drink
more bad acts , looking back I can smell the stink
No escaping the wild, crazy life so very misspent
Only painful knowledge I have that I must now repent!
