Health, Wealth & Peace

In the pursuit of health, wealth & peace
Try not to dwell in the rear view on momentary street
Shun substance for distraction
You can’t squeeze love from hateful action
Picking up the pieces from the days when
Youth was my religion & friends were gods
Awoke and aged atheist in a cold sweat
Begging for recompense
Accepting myself, accepting my condition
Avoiding attachment & following my vision
The changes I waited for never came
My struggles of yesterday are my struggles of today
Give me your heart again, I’ll give you mine
And maybe again, maybe in time…
Our spirits burning bonfire bright in the inky night
