Reflections of the Past, Visions of the Future
Back then,
I was so gullible,
Naïve,
I didn’t know any better
But strangely…
I was at peace
I did what i was told
I didn't step out of line
And life worked out just fine
But now with all the work and expectations
I tremble under the weight of it all
I realized too late
I wasn't personally convicted early.
While others know what their doing and how to get there,
I stand here, knowing my destination but
Having no inkling on how to get there.
I wish my life would skid to a halt.
But life just rushes on
Time just keeps on moving
And the memories of all those years ago
Begin to fade…
I move on.
