On our way to better places
Through time torn into spaces
The winter weather seemed
to beat our souls

We've seen some pretty faces
And stole our share of bases
Still time and seasons
want us to pay tolls

Crossing lines and boundaries
Knowing there's no garauntees
Just cussin' at the
pockets in our holes

Sometimes we could see the breeze
Other times we thought we'd freeze
Everything just bundled
in our clothes

Time has seen us leave our ways
Nights have passed on into days
And all thats left
is hidden in our souls

This is so good!  I especially loved the first and last stanzas.  

There is so much rhythm in it, I love it!

Time has seen us leave our ways
Nights have passed on into days
And all thats left
is hidden in our souls

This is a poem on its own!

Thanks for sharing!

The line "Through time torn into spaces" is quite haunting.  I wonder what you meant when you wrote this line??  Is this the way time is recalled, as spaces in the memory, or the past?  I like this poem.  I've re-read (and re-read) it and the last line sums it all up, I think.  This is the SOUL talking and the spaces filled above are those that were torn from the soul.  Am I correct?
