When! When! When!

When the flowers fail to bloom, when tomorrow comes to soon,
When all that I could be was all that I could see,
When yesterday is a memory, of what could or could not be,
When today became the reality I thought I'd never see.


When thoughts collide who will decide, the way that this should go,
When we don't know, and we can't tell, who did survive,............................................... or who fell,

When all we have to give, is all we have to give, and all we want to do, is just like you, ...............Live!

Are we i wonder?

Honesty and integrity are the ideal of what we should be, truthfulness and clarity are what we should see, are we a minus or a plus, we won't make a fuss, I think that minus may win the game, I don't know, are we all the same?

Youthful

When I talked to the young, they had no reply, except to say,
We are young, it's you that will die,
I tried to explain life does not work that way, its all fun and games,
until the day, the day that you pay,
And no one does know, from day to day, where life will lead us,
or when we will go,
Youthful thoughtlessness, can never be wrong, it's the same hymn sheet
that was our song,
We knew better, we knew it all, now, most of my friends are long gone!

Not alone!

And you found yourself within the crowd, woke up to see,
you were me, not left alone or left to be, a part of all, that's
you and me!

Tomorrow?

Tomorrow becomes today and yesterday fades away, so the present is how we exist, there's no other way, there's nothing to resist, we can't bring back the past, and the future is not meant to last, for it suddenly becomes the.............. past.

So, exist in harmony, for now we are free to.................be!

Where were you?

Where were you when Kennedy died? Where were you when Simpson lied?
Where were you when you realised? Where were you?

Memories

Memories are all we leave, of who we are, what we did believe.

Memories our loved ones hold, maybe, fanciful thoughts that were never told.

Wandering, thinking, seeing the light, knowing what is wrong,
and what is right.

Finding yourself before you go, to leave MEMORIES they can sow.

Really, it's only paper anyway!

I HATE when people tell me money does not grow on trees, its so annoying,
I KNOW MONEY DOES NOT GROW ON TREES, I looked!

But where does it grow?, not anywhere you or I know, tis in the coffers of the
rich and powerful, in foolish hands, in foreign lands, with no one who cares,
no one who dares, to lead the way, ultimately it's you and it's me who pay!

No guarantee!

Tomorrow will always come after today ends
Tomorrow WILL be with or without you or me

Today is where we are at right now
No guarantee of tomorrow, no how

So its strange to me and strange to see
Such importance placed on what may never be.

All there is...is now, mother, father, daughter and son
Be united as one, no second chance to start anew

The time is now, for me and you.

War!

Thunder roars and red sky flies and blinding lights and something dies when all that was has ceased to be the end of life how it used to be when loss and grieving become the norm looking for heaven and finding hell, is this real who can tell, a nightmare that never ends goodbye my life goodbye my friends.
