Till My Last Breath

50 years
Where did it all go
What lessons have I learned
Not young anymore
To old to care
What a freedom 
What a relief
50 years to the day
I've changed in so many ways
My world no longer dark
I no longer bleed regret
50 years gone by
I still look about the same
But the mindset has diffently changed
It ain't about impressing you
It ain't about making you see
It's about this journey my destination 
It's about less pity more envigoration 
It's time to make something of this life
I invite you to come along
Take it all in
Share what it all should be about
I'll take your hand if you let me
I will hold you close
Till my last breath
