“Perseverance”   5 – 1 - 03



When I think of all I broke

All that I laughed and joked

I feel guilt, a deep regret

But then I remember…

And then I forget



When I talk of all we did

All the things I showed and hid

I wish I could go back

Change that very thing…

And then I slack



When I feel the old me

And remember what he did see

I hope I can feel it all again

Maybe even with you…

And then reality sinks in



Here I am now, in this moment

Alive and venting you still

But I so praise all this hurt

And all my lasting will

I have fought so hard, so long

Resisting the urge night and day

To call, to touch, to once again see you

But I’ve now found a way…
