My own
Eyes
Have seen
Opportunity
Have seen struggle
Tough times
Amidst the good
A mixed bag
Not always what I wanted
But what it should
Be
My own
Eyes
Have seen
Opportunity
Have seen struggle
Tough times
Amidst the good
A mixed bag
Not always what I wanted
But what it should
Be
Before the thought
Is an action
Of movement
Or a reaction
Of taking in
What surroundings
Exist
But always thought
Proceeds
Action
Keeping up
Is never easy
Making stride
Never a quick
Go
But never let up
Never let go
Message sent
With no hope of receipt
Send out love
Repeat
This is my promise
One
I intend
To keep
What is hidden
I seek
For a word
I must keep
To the ones I promised
To do the best I can
And always help
If I can
A style of saying
Yes
A way of saying
No
Anyway I do it
I’ll just have to show
High hopes for
A better tomorrow
That is the wish of the
Moment
When I wander
I want to know
If tomorrow
Will be better
Where do I find myself
Today
Or tomorrow
When I try to run away
From the words, I can’t confront
And surely can’t
Say
Can I borrow
Something
In hope to return
What was once pardoned
Is now doomed
A frontier
I stand upon
Either the winds
Or the mountains
Know me by name
In this distant mindset
All is the same
One day
At
A
Time
