many years have I lived
and many things I have done
temptations come and go
as do Earthly pleasures
I triumpthed time and time again
and twice as many failed
I still remember my first love
as well my first enemy
the years fly by
yet I haven't accomplish nothing
I have no trophies, no metals
just alot of bad memories
all because of her
the one that got away
the one I couldn't over come
she was a stronger person than I imagine
but at the time
I thought you an innocent child
To my surprize you weren't
and had scary problems
ones that would frighten any kindergardener
so I was set back
and lived in your shadow for a year
waiting for that right moment
but it never came
Yet again I was surprized
when they caught me
and caged this beast
But I was cunning and found a way out
just to find you had a trump card waiting
so once again I was defeated
clever child strike me down
just to deliever a devastating blow
enough to seriously wound
but never to kill
so I retreated
and time healed my wounds
there I found my ally
if time can heal me
than time can make you forget
so I waited for you to forget
but you kept remembering
than you grew old
and I stop caring
now i find myself standing
in a moonlit dawn
free from clouds of attachment
knowing what I wasted
and what could have been mine
so by mercy
I spare myself
and end my judgement
to start a new life
by leaving you behind
time is cleansed of filth
by the tears of the fallen
and life is cleansed
by the tears of the innocent |
