Always
We felt we had all the time in the world. But fate is never that kind. All that’s left are the memories that creep up on me, and the road behind me unwinds. * I know I need to look ahead, for that’s the only way I can go. But forgive me, if I lookContinue reading “Always”

Movin’ Round The Sun
Sunrise, sunsetSunrise, sunsetSee how fast they come and go Sun-up, sun-downOnce again the day is doneAnd empty are the streets of town So many days I’ve felt I’ve fallen shortSo very few I feel I’ve ended up on top But one must remember a lot is unfair and unjustOften the rewards don’t come think andContinue reading “Movin’ Round The Sun”
Care to die?
Can’t you bring yourself from your slumber? Unable to face the day Don’t want to step into the heat of battle Worried that from your morals you will astray The enemy looms high and mighty Your combat team grows ever sparse At the start of the conflict You felt defeat implausible Now you feel theContinue reading “Care to die?”
Today – Yesterday – Tomorrow
