RENDEZVOUS WITH TIME
Looking back over time
How much was really mine?
Childhood vanished and gone
Like night passes into dawn
 
Others embellishing in avarice
Whilst I was asked to sacrifice,
Innumerable decisions to make
My heart says; better to give and not take
 
Always placating the thoughts of regret
But my mind won’t let me forget,
Mentally I am absolutely drained
My pain can’t be restrained
 
So, would I find peace here below?
Or is it in the halo?
O God! I know not what to do
But my trust I put in you!
