Second Thoughts

A path not taken
endlessly beckons to me
to dream of that lifeSecond guessing existence
recklessly chasing what-if-Clarence Holm
See Me
I am older now since we’ve seen each other
But the passion is still inside.
I walk a little slower now,
My hands tremble as I stride.
The years passed so quickly,
Since those years long ago.
Sweet music then filled my heart and soul
And life was filled with goals.
I followed lanes of promised glory
That turned hollow and seemed cursed.
Any success I found left me cold
Thin wrappers that failed to warm.
Choices made so long ago
Obscure what could have been.
I’d rather you remember me
By how happy we were then.

Everyday,
You walk up to that door
Everyway,
You give your life away
Seems to me,
There’s a better way
Turn away,
Life could start again.
Dreams dim,
How’d life get this way
Goals sway,
Choices come and go
You thought,
It was best for you
Start again,
Life’s not over yet.
Seek hope,
You can begin again
Seek dreams,
Thoughts are on your side
Great ideas,
Will come to you
Hold on,
You can see life through.
