 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Knowing now...


Knowing now that all light is fading
And one day the darkness will be all that will be
Believing once my time was worthy
Of all in life that I could achieve…
Dreams were distant but always whispering
‘The doors I searched for would soon open wide'
But the price for me was too much to ponder
When the cost was truth destroyed with more lies.

Knowing now that faith has no meaning
When all I have believed in knows nothing of me
Nor the roads I have travelled in search of forgiveness
For crimes I've committed in my search to believe…
So few that I've known I have loved as a dear friend
I see so many failings that go unchallenged each day
And those that I have loved were those I could rely on
To be honest in all that they do and they say.

Knowing now that it is life that has true meaning
And for me what is real, I can touch with my hands
Belief is for others that seek out redemption
My life like many others had far greater plans…
But nothing was clear until life was a question
Whether the journey was worth the sorrow now sewn?
Knowing now what I know I would say without question
Life is for living wherever you go…???
