Thirty Years

Chasing rainbows for a lifetime
then left to go
Like shadows from the sun,
Run into traces
Of faces you thought you saw
But never seemed to mean much more
than echoes of a day gone by
When someone else would have to try
To light the stars
…In your sky.
All the things you planned
Just sand castles washed away
On tidal waves of tears,
fears overpowering
Your complex dreams just slither down
drowning in rocky pools,
Or smashed and dashed
On peril’s course, forcing prematurely
thoughts
Of lasting love
…In your life.
Sometime we need time to spare
Feeling of missed opportunity
Spare a tear and douse your bridge…
burning
30 years and on the ledge…
(learning)
All the things you planned
(baby)
30 years in bed.

All the things you planned

Like shadows from the sun,
Run into traces
Of faces you thought you saw
But never seemed to mean much more
than echoes of a day gone by
When someone else would have to try
To light the stars
…In your sky.
