You burn so fast
old before your time
seems things good never last
when you count them in your mind


Rainbows and blonde haired ladies
often dissappear after the storm
embed the trace of fair wheather sadies
you struggle to get back to the norm


Reflections of passion,
renewed by summer fashions
as the trip replays
over and over in your mind
another day pass'
you've fooled the mass'
into thinking no harm,
your going to be just fine


So walk quietly into another day
never show your scars from the night
retain a shadow of the truth for yourself
along the way
your smile must hide your sorrow
until tomorrow
for your being wrong don't make them right


Past is past and tommorow is today yesterday
someday you'll learn the answers
or perhaps... the questions

(sigh) Oh Dennis, this is so very true, sweet friend, but yet if we keep the sorrow concealed for too long it can hurt much more in the long run and we should show a smile but all the while find a way to release the blue! (big hugggsssssss) This is heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dennis, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I like this alot, it seems very realistic to me.
And I heard once you can never learn the answers until you ask the questions. I suppose that means larning them helps.. but I think we all know them, somewhere in us.
Enjoyed this a lot!

Always, Alyssa

Much wisdom is nestled among these words, DH...
