Look To the Future
Thoughts pour out of my eyes
Notions that journey far beyond these plaster walls
Ideas that dance into a dream
Memory that falters is the cause of my downfalls
Life itself pays a visit to my mind
Death stops by and knocks down the front door
Luck tiptoes quietly by
Annoyance reappears for an encore
Passion cries out to the wind
Lust trips blindly over the rocky pathway
Love teases, always just out of my reach
Devotion is mindlessly tearing away
So maybe my mind wanders a tad too much
Visting old friends and making new ones
But its always to the future my mind will clutch...
...Always look to the future before the past awakens
