 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

geishacountrypoetpoetry759
I now know what is mine


Their voices so distant
getting harder to hear
the nightmares less frequent
having lived through my fears…
knowledge more confusing
now I know so much more
love just a memory
of a life lived before…
time just a bumpy path
mountains there to climb
there was someone I used to know?
I now know what is mine…
truth is just a lonely fool
not knowing when to die
tears just another tool
to explain the reasons why…
my companion my bleeding heart
having nowhere else to run
a picture sometimes “rings a bell?”
but then the truth is fast undone
there are dreams lost to memories
some memories lost in dreams
a pathway lined with flowers
is almost never as it seems…
when their voices become more distant
when all is left behind
when the light will finally burn out
ill know just what is mine!?
