Who Is Tom?

Its been a long time since I’ve felt blissful, I know I’m the one to shoulder any blame. Bliss ended long before years turned golden, too many matters I’ve allowed to inflame. I’ve always been, for the most part, a loner, crowds and idle chit chat I’ve tried to avoid. Married sixty years to the same woman, Just two D.I.N.K.S. one in need of Freud. But surveying the past changes nothing, so musings should focus on time unspent. But the future holds no aspirations for me, it’s just about time to take down the tent. But throughout my life I have been blessed, faith in God has seen me through each test.
