The First Goodbye

As I sit here not knowing what to do All the faces I have loved come into view Music plays and brings me back Back to a place on a different life track Wish I knew if this track was the right one and that the last chapter was really over and done Every now and then The past creeps into my brain again Bringing me back to another time When life was hard But love was the only crime Never thought I would be here Sitting all alone but not sheding a tear Dissapointments have come and gone But my love for you carries on My life has changed so much so fast I hope these choices wont make me wish to be back in the past Every now and then The past creeps into my brain again Bringing me back to another time When life was hard But love was the only crime I am strong and happy With a smile on my face I dont need anything to take your place The music you gave me warms my heart And with that I will never part Every now and then The past creeps into my brain again Bringing me back to another time When life was hard But love was the only crime

Smile ~ I love treasures such as this albeit, never within the shades of gray although often, the most profound of beautiful verse is found brought forth from such as this place of somber amid ones life ~ Although, from my own perspective, not being able to grasp the light waiting beyond this life only enhances the degree of pain which need not be ~ And then to turn the stone of view and understandings again, my dear ~ Cont:)
