[hometext] => My ideas on old age at my young age
[bodytext] => Listen to me son For I have a story to tell It holds my secrets For today I have no loss of telling you For today is the day when tomorrow will never come for me For today, tomorrow will leave me behind Everyman has a reason. And I tell you mine Forgive me if I make no sense But when tomorrow leaves you You will understand I roll the dice To see where they land On a plain of six They land on seven I see everything that is there Everything you ignore And my thoughts are clear At this age I realize I don’t care My purpose was yesterday That I would set the package On the steps of her door But I was wrong My purpose is now The day tomorrow left me behind Do not try to understand Your mind will not accept Just know this is the day Tomorrow left me behind I have a library In my head I have all the knowledge of a lawyer But what good does it do me now The sun will be there tomorrow But all wont be there Tomorrow never forgets the sun Because it is the sun that takes tomorrow Remember that my son Acknowledge it but do not think about it For now my heart shall slow And you listen to my last words Remember me Once you grow old And remember son The day tomorrow left me behind [comments] => 3 [counter] => 246 [topic] => 48 [informant] => TheRealm [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )
