Making Way For Another Day

Making way for another day
Forcing nothing
Living by the rules
Set in my head the other day.

Merry, happy I’ll trudge
Thru the falling snow
Breathing in, letting out
All thoughts gone wrong, bad
In yesterday’s head.

Let The Memories Thrive

Let the memories thrive
In my head, my heart
Our lives.

Let them not control
The moments now
Nor allow me to live a lie.

But exist with their thoughts
To survive, to strive
To be alive.

Many Regrets

Many regrets
Lay weeping in my head
Many regrets
I just can’t forget.

Many regrets

Many regrets
Are with me still
Many regrets
As of yet.

Many regrets
