Abstract This Life

Rating: 5.0


Betwixt these lines, I sense foreboding
Of unspoken words I am supposing
Where things now done, may bring you dismay
What change would you have made I say?
For what is done, cannot be replaced
And in history it must be placed
Among the memories of times gone by
Where regrets don't give us reasons why
In passive dreams we remember times
Where life is never just sublime
To look for answers we never found
To find the truth on thorny ground
To make real your dream, or even hope
Doth give you fortitude to cope
For what this life, if full of care
We must try and we must dare
To live our dreams no matter what
Be thankful for all that we have got
If we do not, I fear we will fail
Into the darkness, into the pale
So in your dreams you now must seek
A future bright, to allay the bleak

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Sue - this is a wonderful expression of looking toward the future, as looking back to change things is simply fruitless. An amazing friend of mine recently wrote to me, 'If you hanker on the past it only makes you bitter.' Amazing indeed. Words I too could use to live by. I loved your poem, Sue and may the future provide you the comfort the past has not. Stone
