Unknown
Words floating across the mind
Sometimes hard to find
What is wrong , what is right
Pondering the question deep into the night.
Is anything worth the fight
Reminding myself throughout the day
Seek the right words to say
Who am I to be
What is it I'm meant to see
Can words set one free
Where do I go from here
Whom can I trust to stand near,
So I walk alone
With just memories of what life has shown
The silent echoes of days gone by
Sometimes I still cry
Lost to yesterday
Times I lost my way
Path I choose was wrong
And I stumbled way to long
Lost was my song
Lost was my heart
Where to start.
Stepping past the dark into the light
Such a fight.
Looking back into the past
Tried not to take life to fast.
But here I am now old
Not so bold
But my soul hasn't been sold
I walk heart free.
What is next for me to see
I'll soon find out what does await
My heart will be free of hate .
As I make my own fate.
