The Dream That Is Life

My dream of my 
Life
Has faded with 
Age

I walk through
this life
And just keep
turning the page

We recollect
and we look back
Never expecting our
present

and never seeing the
attack

The attack of the
Future
is always at our heels

But our heads still tilt
towards the ground
and we choose not to

feel
