?

It seems just a little while ago
When, it was a brand-new year
The days keep getting shorter
And, so is my life, that’s clear!

Another second has gone by
To make up, another minute
And as each day comes along
I wonder,“If, I will be in it?”

A moment passed, forever
No chance for that second try
It does no good, to look back
Or, even ask the question, “Why?”

All we can do, is look ahead
To see, what we might see
Because all that’s behind us
Is, what, will never, ever, be.
